Product Information
Name:D-Arginine
Brand:Biosynth
Description:D-Arginine is an amino acid that plays an important role in the metabolism of nitrogen. D-Arginine is a substrate for nitric oxide synthase, which produces nitric oxide from L-arginine. It also binds to calcium receptors on the cytosolic surface of cells and increases intracellular calcium levels. D-Arginine is a competitive inhibitor of receptor binding by hydroxyl groups and can be used to study receptor binding. The X-ray crystal structures of D-arginine have been solved at 1.8Å resolution and show that the molecule adopts a β-turn conformation, with one N atom forming a hydrogen bond with the side chain carbonyl group. This interaction stabilizes the protein structure and prevents it from adopting its natural open conformation.
D-Arginine has also been shown to have antimicrobial effects against bacteria by inhibiting peptide synthesis, while having no effect on mammalian cell growth or metabolic
