Function | Regulates the level of the neuromodulator D-serine in the brain. Has high activity towards D-DOPA and contributes to dopamine synthesis. Could act as a detoxifying agent which removes D-amino acids accumulated during aging. Acts on a variety of D- amino acids with a preference for those having small hydrophobic side chains followed by those bearing polar, aromatic, and basic groups. Does not act on acidic amino acids (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}. |
Subcellular Location | Peroxisome. |
Top Pathways | Glycine, serine and threonine metabolism, Peroxisome, Arginine and proline metabolism, D-Arginine and D-ornithine metabolism |
