O-Acetylserine（Cat No.:I013714）is a derivative of the amino acid serine, where the hydroxyl group (-OH) of the serine molecule is acetylated to form the O-acetyl group. It plays a role in the biosynthesis of cysteine, an essential amino acid, through the transsulfuration pathway. O-Acetylserine serves as an intermediate in the production of cysteine, which is crucial for protein synthesis, antioxidant defense, and cellular metabolism. It is also involved in the regulation of sulfur metabolism. This compound is studied in relation to metabolic pathways and potential applications in biotechnology and medicine.
