eng Abstract:
Thiodiglycolic acid (TDGA), structurally S(CH2COOH)2, is a part of the metabolic pathway used by the human organism to remove dicarbon units produced in catabolic processes TDGA origanates from glycolate and glutathione (GSH). The latter is dependent on the release of cysteine from homocysteine under the influence of vitamins folate and B12.
