D-AMINO ACID OXIDASE FROM PIG KIDNEYD-AMINO ACID OXIDASE FROM PIG KIDNEY
Structural highlights
FunctionOXDA_PIG Regulates the level of the neuromodulator D-serine in the brain. Has high activity towards D-DOPA and contributes to dopamine synthesis. Could act as a detoxifying agent which removes D-amino acids accumulated during aging. Acts on a variety of D-amino acids with a preference for those having small hydrophobic side chains followed by those bearing polar, aromatic, and basic groups. Does not act on acidic amino acids.
