Homocysteine in Protein Structure/Function and Human Disease Chemical Biology of Homocysteine-containing Proteins /

Excess of homocysteine, a product of the metabolism of the essential amino acid methionine, is associated with poor health, is linked to heart and brain diseases in general human populations, and accelerates mortality in heart disease patients. Neurological and cardiovascular abnormalities occur in...
