Description

L-cycloserine irreversibly inhibit GABA pyridoxal 5′-phosphate-dependent aminitransferase in E. coli, as well in the brains of various animals in a time-dependent manner, results in increased levels of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), which is an inhibitory neurotransmitter in vivo.


L-cycloserine is a 4-amino-1,2-oxazolidin-3-one that has S configuration. An antibiotic isolated from Erwinia uredovora. It has a role as an anticonvulsant, an EC 2.3.1.50 (serine C-palmitoyltransferase) inhibitor and an anti-HIV agent. It is an enantiomer of a D-cycloserine.

Drug Function and Efficacy

This product has a similar structure to D-alanine. It can inhibit the cell wall synthesis of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, interfere with the early synthesis of the cell wall of Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and competitively inhibit L-alanine racemase and D-alanine synthetase in the cytoplasm. L-alanine racemase converts L-alanine into D-alanine. D-alanine synthetase can participate in the conversion of alanine to pentapeptide, which is necessary for the synthesis of mucopeptides and bacterial cell walls. It is especially effective against Mycobacterium tuberculosis resistant to streptomycin, sodium p-aminosalicylate, isoniazid and puromycin. This product is a broad-spectrum antibiotic that has inhibitory effects on both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria, but the inhibitory effect is weak. It has a strong inhibitory effect on Mycobacterium tuberculosis, and the minimum inhibitory concentration in vitro is 5-20μg/ml. It also has inhibitory effects on other mycobacteria, rickettsiae and some protozoa.

This ingredient has been used in drugs with the following functions (note: it does not mean that the ingredient itself has the following health functions)
