Definition
O-phospho-d-serine, also known as (2r)-2-amino-3-(phosphonooxy)propanoic acid, is a member of the class of compounds known as D-alpha-amino acids. D-alpha-amino acids are alpha amino acids which have the D-configuration of the alpha-carbon atom. O-phospho-d-serine is soluble (in water) and a moderately acidic compound (based on its pKa). O-phospho-d-serine can be found in a number of food items such as mugwort, rambutan, common persimmon, and ostrich fern, which makes O-phospho-d-serine a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. O-phospho-d-serine may be a unique E.coli metabolite.
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.
