Selenium in the Environment, Metabolism and Involvement in Body Functions (2013, background): “The stored selenium is used when selenium food intake is too low for selenoproteins synthesis [82].”
Effects of different dietary selenium sources (selenium nanoparticle and selenomethionine) on growth performance, muscle composition and glutathione peroxidase enzyme activity of crucian carp (Carassius auratus gibelio) (2009, background): “Activated selenomethionine is converted to selenocysteine and the selenocysteine is degraded further in liver to serine and selenide (Schrauzer, 2000).”
Homeostasis and toxicology of essential metals (2012, background): “In mammals, gastrointestinal absorption of selenomethionine occurs mainly by the epithelial Naþ-dependent neutral amino acid transporter (Schrauzer, 2000).”
Effects of vitamin E and selenium on the performance and immune status of ewes and lambs (2004, background): “2); an excess of seleno-methionine incorporation into protein can influence protein function if selenomethionine replaces methionine at the active site of an enzyme (Schrauzer 2000).”
