General description
Methyl 3-(methylthio)propionate is the major ester present in the flavour profile of juices made from fresh-cut pineapple fruits.
Application
Methyl 3-(methylthio)propionate was used to prepare 3-methiolpropionate(MMPA) to study the demethylation of Dimethylsulfoniopropionate and MMPA to 3-mercaptopropionate by aerobic marine bacterium. Methyl 3-(methylthio)propionate was used to prepare 3-(Methylthio)propionic acid to examine the methionine catabolism by Lactococci by 13C Nuclear Magnetic Resonance and Gas Chromatography.

A bacterium, strain BIS-6, that grew aerobically on dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) was isolated from an intertidal mud sample. Strain BIS-6 quantitatively demethylated DMSP and 3-methiolpropionate to 3-mercaptopropionate. Strain BIS-6 was a versatile methylotroph growing on the osmolytes DMSP and glycine betaine
