Metabolite Identification
Common NameTrimethylselenonium
DescriptionTrimethylselenonium belongs to the class of organic compounds known as selenoethers. These are organic compounds containing a selenoether group, with the general formula RseR' ( where R, R' are not H atoms). Trimethylselenonium is a drug. Trimethylselenonium has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as anatidaes (Anatidae), chickens (Gallus gallus), and domestic pigs (Sus scrofa domestica). This could make trimethylselenonium a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Trimethylselenonium is a primary metabolite. Primary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically essential metabolites. They are directly involved in an organism’s growth, development or reproduction. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Trimethylselenonium.

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in methyltransferase activity
Specific function:
Functions as thioether S-methyltransferase and is active with a variety of thioethers and the corresponding selenium and tellurium compounds, including 3-methylthiopropionaldehyde, dimethyl selenide, dimethyl telluride, 2-methylthioethylamine, 2-methylthioethanol, methyl-n-propyl sulfide and diethyl sulfide. Plays an important role in the detoxification of selenium compounds (By similarity). Catalyzes the N-methylation of tryptamine and structurally related compounds.
