“Cl-Tyr and diCl-Tyr were also formed from free tyrosine but then reacted further with HOCl.”
“In this study, we aimed to investigate the formation of Cl-Tyr from reaction of HOCl with tyrosine (both free and peptide-bound) and the fate of Cl-Tyr under such conditions.”
“At pH 7.4 we detected an increased HOCl production in the presence of tyrosine not only by the MPO-H(2)O(2)-Cl(-) system but also in suspensions of zymosan-activated neutrophils.”

“The reaction of protein with HOCl resulted in changes in protein conformation as assessed by the UV fluorescence and oxidation of the unique methionine and tyrosine , chlorination of several lysines with formation of chloramines.”
“Cysteine, tryptophan, and methionine were proven to be the most vulnerable amino acids for degradation upon hypochlorous and peracetic acid treatment, while tyrosine was only prone to degradation in the presence of hypochlorous acid.”
