Methionine is an essential amino acid that plays a crucial role in protein synthesis, methylation processes, and the production of important molecules such as glutathione and creatine. Research in the area of methionine focuses on its role in human health and disease, including its impact on metabolism, cardiovascular health, neurological function, and the immune system. Studies have also explored the potential benefits of methionine supplementation in various conditions, as well as the interactions between methionine and other nutrients in the diet. Additionally, research is ongoing to better understand the mechanisms underlying methionine metabolism and its effects on cellular pathways and gene expression.
