    Product Description

    Cysteinylglycine is an endogenous dipeptide intermediate in glutathione (GSH) catabolism.1 It is formed from extracellular GSH via hydrolysis or transpeptidation mediated by γ-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) and is a cellular source of cysteine and glycine for the formation of GSH.1,2
