How Is Methionine Synthesized?
How Is Methionine Synthesized? Methionine is synthesized from homoserine in four steps (Figure 5, third line). Three complex reactions replace the hydroxyl group of homoserine with -SH, which produces homocysteine. Succinylation of the hydroxyl group by succinyl-CoA initiates these reactions in E. What is methionine made from? Methionine is an amino acid found in many
