Metabolite Identification
Common NameN-Acetyl-D-tyrosine
DescriptionN-Acetyl-D-tyrosine is a member of the amino acid derivative chemical class, specifically classified as an N-acetylated form of the amino acid D-tyrosine. Its chemical structure features an acetyl group attached to the nitrogen atom of the amino group of D-tyrosine, which alters its solubility and reactivity compared to its parent amino acid. In biochemical pathways, N-acetyl-D-tyrosine is involved in various metabolic processes, including those related to protein synthesis and neurotransmitter regulation. It can serve as a substrate for various enzymes, where kinetic parameters such as Michaelis constants (K m) and maximum reaction velocities (V max) have been assessed in studies involving multiple N-acetylated amino acids, including N-acetyl-D-tyrosine itself (PMID:29509381 ). This highlights its relevance in enzymatic reactions and its potential role in metabolic pathways that utilize N-acetylated amino acids for various physiological functions.
