- Extra Details:
- Cysteinylglycine (L-Cysteinylglycine; Cys-Gly) is a dipeptide formed by the peptide bond linkage between cysteine (Cysteine) and glycine (Glycine). Cysteinylglycine is an important metabolic intermediate in the human body; mainly derived from the degradation of glutathione (GSH). Cysteinylglycine reduces ferric iron to ferrous iron; drives the redox cycle of iron; generates reactive oxygen species (ROS); stimulates oxidative reactions; induces lipid peroxidation of human plasma LDL lipoproteins; and causes oxidative damage to DNA bases. Cysteinylglycine can be used as a biomarker to evaluate ischemic heart disease; breast cancer and other conditions[1][2][3][4].
