General description
α-Keto-γ-methylthiobutyric acid (KMTB) is a keto derivative of L-methionine that shows considerable potential as a substitute for L-methionine. The sodium salt of KMTB can be employed in nucleophilic substitution reactions. Additionally, it acts as a building block for the synthesis of amino acids, peptides, and other complex organic compounds.
Application
- Measuring antioxidant capacity using the ORAC and TOSC assays.: This study details the use of α-Keto-γ-(methylthio)butyric acid sodium salt in assessing antioxidant capacity through ORAC and TOSC assays, emphasizing its utility in metabolic and chemical synthesis research (Garrett AR et al., 2010).

The loss of protein homeostasis that has been associated with aging leads to altered levels and conformational instability of proteins, which tend to form toxic aggregates. In particular, brain aging presents characteristic patterns of misfolded oligomers, primarily constituted of β-amyloid

Relative bioefficacy and toxicity of Met precursor compounds were investigated in young chicks. The effectiveness of DL-Met and 2-keto-4-(methylthio)butyric acid (Keto-Met) to serve as L-Met precursors was quantified using Met-deficient diets of differing composition. Efficacy was based on slope-ratio and
