✦ Synopsis

An assay for GSH which depends on the development of fluorescence after treating the thiol with OPT2 at pH 8 was devised by Cohn and Lyle (1) and further studied by McNeil and Beck (2). Amounts of GSH as low as lo-lo mole were determined. Other compounds including cysteine, homocysteine and ergothioneine were found to give little or no fluorescence

The enzyme N5-methyltetrahydrofolate-homocysteine methyltransferase (methionine synthase, EC 2.1.1.13) catalyzes the conversion of homocysteine to methionine in the presence of a reducing system. N5-Methyltetrahydrofolate serves as a methyl donor in this reaction. An assay for the enzyme is describe
