About this listen
In nature, amino acids exist as two distinct isomers, designated D and L Isomers. These mirror images of one another are metabolized differently in the cell. Only L isomers are used in cellular protein synthesis. Most catabolic enzymes metabolize L-isomers only while D-isomers are metabolized by D-Amino acid oxidase.
