Description

D-Proline, is white to off-white powder. D-proline is a non-essential amino acid that is synthesized from Glutamic Acid. It is an essential component of Collagen and is important for proper functioning of joints and tendons.

D-Proline is an isomer of the naturally occurring amino acid, L-Proline. D-amino acids have been found in relatively high abundance in human plasma and saliva). These amino acids may be of bacterial origin, but there is also evidence that they are endogenously produced through amino acid racemase activity.

Benefits

D-Proline is an essential component of collagen and is important for proper functioning of joints and tendons. It is also used as asymmetric catalysts in proline organocatalysis reactions.
