Glutathione (English: Glutathione), also known as sulfur amino bran, English abbreviation: GSH, belonging tripeptide (Tripeptide), by glutamate, cysteine and glycine posed, the first of a peptide bond different from ordinary peptide bond, by glutamate of γ- carboxyl and amino groups consisting of cysteine, in the molecule the cysteine thiol group is the main functional group of the compound. As an animal cell antioxidants, present in the interior of the cell filled with water, can protect DNA from oxidation. Glutathione exists in the human body in two patterns, first, the reduction patterns, the other is an oxidation patterns. Spinach contains glutathione.
Active peptides, also known as the active peptide, refers to the in vivo peptide has a special function. Small to contain only two amino acids, amino acids large by hundreds of components. Peptides are widely distributed in the biosphere. Plays many different roles. Frequently used as an internal chemical messenger signals transmitted between cells or, regulatory actions between cells or between organs. Including many of the latest research nervous, immune, are associated with aging, such as small peptides related. Common and important active polypeptide comprising: glutathione GSH |
