S-Methylglutathione（Cat No.:R060469）is a modified tripeptide derivative of glutathione in which the thiol group of cysteine is methylated. This alteration reduces its ability to participate in typical thiol–disulfide redox reactions, making it a valuable probe for studying glutathione metabolism and conjugation pathways. Researchers use S-Methylglutathione to investigate enzymatic specificity of glutathione S-transferases (GSTs), redox regulation, and detoxification mechanisms. It also serves as a tool in biochemical and pharmacological studies of oxidative stress and xenobiotic metabolism. Its structural modification provides insight into glutathione-dependent biological processes.
