(-)-o-Tyrosine

Description:

(-)-o-Tyrosine, also known as 2-hydroxyphenylalanine, is an amino acid derivative characterized by its phenolic structure, which includes a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to the ortho position of the aromatic ring relative to the amino group (-NH2). This compound is a chiral molecule, with the "(-)" designation indicating its specific optical activity, meaning it can rotate plane-polarized light in a counterclockwise direction. It is a non-proteinogenic amino acid, meaning it is not incorporated into proteins during translation but can be involved in various biochemical pathways. (-)-o-Tyrosine is soluble in water and exhibits properties typical of amino acids, such as the ability to form zwitterions in solution. It has potential applications in biochemical research and may play a role in the synthesis of neurotransmitters and other biologically relevant compounds. Additionally, its structural similarity to L-tyrosine suggests it may participate in similar metabolic processes, although its specific biological functions and implications are still an area of ongoing research.
