Description

D-Cysteine is the D-isomer of cysteine and a powerful inhibitor of Escherichia coli growth. D-cysteine is mediated by D-amino acid oxidase to produce H2S and is a neuroprotectant against cerebellar ataxias. D-Cysteine could inhibit the growth and cariogenic virulence of dual-species biofilms formed by S. mutans and S. sanguinis[1][2][3].


Solid


D-cysteine is an optically active form of cysteine having D-configuration. It is a cysteine and a D-alpha-amino acid. It is a conjugate base of a D-cysteinium. It is a conjugate acid of a D-cysteinate(1-). It is an enantiomer of a L-cysteine. It is a tautomer of a D-cysteine zwitterion.|A thiol-containing non-essential amino acid that is oxidized to form CYSTINE.
