Metabolite Identification
Common NameD-Serine
DescriptionD-Serine, also known as D-serin or DSN, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as serine and derivatives. Serine and derivatives are compounds containing serine or a derivative thereof resulting from reaction of serine at the amino group or the carboxy group, or from the replacement of any hydrogen of glycine by a heteroatom. D-Serine is a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). D-Serine exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans.
