Identification
Common NameD-Ornithine
ClassSmall Molecule
DescriptionD-Ornithine belongs to the class of organic compounds known as d-alpha-amino acids. These are alpha amino acids which have the D-configuration of the alpha-carbon atom. D-Ornithine is possibly soluble (in water) and a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). D-Ornithine can be converted into 5-amino-2-oxopentanoic acid through its interaction with the enzyme D-amino-acid oxidase. In cattle, D-ornithine is involved in the metabolic pathway called the D-arginine and D-ornithine metabolism pathway.
