Description
What is Taurine? Taurine is a amino that behaves as a lipid and membrane stabilizer. Most Taurine benefits are exerted through other compounds in the body. Unlike most amino s, Taurine is not used to produce proteins so its classified as a conditionally essential amino . Taurine occurs ly in the human body and is found in most animal meats. Foods high in Taurine include fish, poultry, red meats, shellfish and dairy products. Taurine synthesis in mammals occurs through the cysteine sulfinic pathway. In this process, cysteine is oxidized to sulfinic and is then catalyzed by cysteine dioxygenase. Cysteine sulfinic is then decarboxylated by sulfinoalanine decarboxylase to make hypotaurine, which is then oxidized to create Taurine.
