description Product Description
D-Tyrosine is widely used in the pharmaceutical industry as a precursor for the synthesis of various drugs, including those targeting neurological disorders and pain management. It plays a crucial role in the production of L-DOPA, a medication essential for treating Parkinson's disease. Additionally, D-Tyrosine is utilized in research studies to investigate enzyme mechanisms and protein interactions, particularly in the context of tyrosine metabolism. In the field of biochemistry, it serves as a chiral building block for synthesizing peptides and other bioactive compounds. Its application extends to nutritional supplements, where it is included to support cognitive function and stress management. Furthermore, D-Tyrosine is employed in the development of diagnostic tools and assays to study metabolic pathways and disease markers.
