A modified form of cysteine which is non-toxic and stable than cysteine and it is rapidly converted into cysteine and carbon dioxide inside the cells
Koprosteine is a modified form of cysteine which is non-toxic and stable than cysteine and it is rapidly converted into cysteine and carbon dioxide inside the cells. Cysteine is a key component and building block of the antioxidant glutathione.Cysteine with thiol group is responsible for anti glycation of collagen and is effective against vesicants and percutaneous chemical agents. Ability of Koprosteine to bind copper ions that are essential for tyrosinase activity responsible for melanin inhibition.
