Product Information
Name:D-Proline
Synonyms:
- D-Pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid
Brand:Biosynth
Description:D-Proline is a non-essential amino acid that can be synthesized by the body. It is a racemic mixture of the two stereoisomers, L-proline and D-proline. Research has shown that D-proline inhibits the enzyme racemase, which converts L-proline to D-proline. Racemase inhibition leads to an accumulation of L-proline, which may reduce disease activity in some cases. D-Proline also inhibits liver cells and trigeminal nerve cells, leading to decreased pain. The asymmetric synthesis of picolinic acid from D-pyridoxal 5'-phosphate catalyzed by prolinase occurs at a pH optimum around 2.8. This reaction is used as a model system for studying chemical biology and antimicrobial peptides.
D-Proline can be found in E coli K12 and other bacteria with analytical chemistry techniques such as gas chromatography mass spectrometry (GC
