General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction increased levels of enzyme-mediated D-serine production are associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis and Alzheimer's disease Homo sapiens
physiological function the enzyme is responsible for D-serine production in the central nervous system, where D-serine acts as a co-agonist of the N-methyl-D-aspartate receptor ion channels Homo sapiens
