This volume is dedicated to analytical methods for the enzymes involved in the metabolism of D-amino acids, which have been found to occur not only in prokaryotes and some lower organisms, as was previously thought, but also in invertebrates and vertebrates, including humans.

D-Amino acids are stereoisomers or optical isomers of naturally occurring L-amino acids. D Amino acids and L-amino acids have almost the same physical and chemical properties. This book focuses on analytical methods for D-Amino Acids in Peptides and Protei

This title details methods for analysis of free D-amino acids, which have been found to be present not only in prokaryotes and some lower organisms, but also in invertebrates and vertebrates including humans.
