Mycothiol

    WARNING: This product is for research use only, not for human or veterinary use.

Hodoodo CAT#: H571485

CAS#: 192126-76-4

Description: Mycothiol is a glyco-inositol-cysteine that conjugates exogenous compounds for detoxication. It is the microbe equivalent of glutathione in the eukaryote, and is acted on by mycothiol disulfide reductase and mycothiol S-conjugate amidase and MDF dehydrogenase. It may be a promising agent against tuberculosis as an important cellcular antioxidant.
