Aims: The post-translational oxidation of methionine to methionine sulfoxide (MetSO) is a reversible process, enabling the repair of oxidative damage to proteins and the use of sulfoxidation as a regulatory switch. MetSO reductases catalyze the stereospecific reduction of MetSO. One

3,4-Methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA; "ecstasy") is widely consumed recreationally. Little is known about its effects on the human metabolome. Mapping biochemical changes after drug exposure can complement traditional approaches by revealing potential biomarkers of organ toxicity or discovering new metabolomic features in

Cysteine and methionine residues are the amino acids most sensitive to oxidation by reactive oxygen species. However, in contrast to other amino acids, certain cysteine and methionine oxidation products can be reduced within proteins by dedicated enzymatic repair systems. Oxidation
