L-Cystathionine dihydrochloride(CAT: I040709) is a naturally occurring intermediate in the transsulfuration pathway, where it plays a key role in the biosynthesis of cysteine from methionine via homocysteine. It is formed through the action of cystathionine β-synthase and further metabolized by cystathionine γ-lyase. L-Cystathionine dihydrochloride is widely used in biochemical and metabolic research to study amino acid metabolism, enzyme activity, and disorders related to sulfur-containing amino acids, such as homocystinuria. Supplied as a stable dihydrochloride salt, it is suitable for in vitro and in vivo applications. This compound is essential for exploring pathways in nutrition, neurology, and metabolic disease research.
