Description

Glu-Cys (Glutamyl-cysteine; PSSGlu-Cys) is a dipeptide composed of L-glutamic acid and L-cysteine joined by a peptide linkage [1].

In Vitro, Glu-Cys is a protein-bound related thiol compound that can forms disulphide bonds with sulphydryl groups of wheat gluten proteins, including monomeric gliadins and glutenin polymers[1].
