D-Norvaline（Cat No.:R045452）is a non-proteinogenic amino acid, the D-enantiomer of norvaline, which is an α-amino acid and a derivative of valine. It is not commonly incorporated into proteins but plays a role in various biochemical processes. D-Norvaline has been studied for its potential therapeutic applications, particularly in cardiovascular and metabolic disorders, due to its ability to inhibit arginase, an enzyme involved in the regulation of nitric oxide production. It has also been investigated for its effects on nitric oxide synthesis and potential benefits in enhancing vascular health and exercise performance.
