D-Tyrosine is the D-isomer of the amino acid tyrosine, commonly used in biochemical and pharmaceutical research. It plays a role in neurotransmitter synthesis, particularly in dopamine and norepinephrine pathways. D-Tyrosine is utilized in studies of chiral discrimination, protein structure, and enzyme catalysis. Its unique stereochemistry differentiates it from the L-form, offering insights into racemization processes and the effects of chirality on biological activity. D-Tyrosine serves as a valuable tool in exploring drug design and receptor interactions.
