Abstract

Methionine is an indispensable sulfur-containing amino acid that is involved in processes unique to the body: initiation of protein synthesis; methylation process, an adenosine residue is attached to methionine and S-adenosylmethionine is formed; as a result of metabolic reactions, this methyl group is transferred to a number of substrates. In this case, adrenaline, melatonin, creatine, and other amino acids are formed. This article contains a literature review of articles that prove the antioxidant properties of methionine on the cell and the body as a whole. A large amount of literature and databases, such as Pubmed, Google.Scholar, Embase, have been worked out to search for information.
