Selenomethionine is an organic selenium compound, the primary dietary form of selenium in plants and a precursor to selenocysteine-containing selenoproteins with antioxidant functions. It is used as a selenium supplement and has been investigated for chemopreventive properties in age-related macular degeneration, asthma, and various cancers. As a methionine analog, it is incorporated into proteins in place of methionine and serves as a selenium reservoir in the body.
