D-Homocysteine is an amino acid that is produced from dietary l-tartaric acid. It is synthesized by a series of reactions in the body, including conversion of s-adenosylhomocysteine hydrolase to homocysteine, followed by conversion of homocysteine to D-homocysteine by the enzyme, synthetase. D-Homocysteine is found in animal and human blood plasma and urine. The stereoisomeric form of D-homocysteine has been demonstrated in vitro studies to be more reactive than the L form. The biological function of this stereoisomer has not yet been elucidated.
