| 1 | Human neutrophils and the MPO system were about 10 times more efficient in decarboxylating alanine than methionine. | Methionine | myeloperoxidase | Homo sapiens |
| 2 | The fraction of methionine decarboxylated by human neutrophils or the MPO system was small compared to the fraction which was oxidized to methionine sulfoxide. | Methionine | myeloperoxidase | Homo sapiens |
| 3 | Thus methionine was preferentially oxidized to methionine sulfoxide by the MPO system. | Methionine | myeloperoxidase | Homo sapiens |
| 4 | However, once methionine was oxidized to methionine sulfoxide, it was readily decarboxylated by the MPO system. | Methionine | myeloperoxidase | Homo sapiens |
