  • Tyrosine
rdfs:comment
  • Tyrosine is a nonessential amino acid. Tyrosine is called a semi-essential amino acid in children because adults generally produce adequate amounts, but children may not. L-Tyrosine is a starting material for neurotransmitters and increases plasma neurotransmitter levels, particularly dopamine and noradrenaline. It is also involved in the synthesis of enkephalins, compounds that have pain-relieving effects in the body.
  • In the Foldit Lua interface, the functions structure.GetAminoAcid and structure.SetAminoAcid use lowercase "y" for tyrosine. For more, see Tyrosine on wikipedia.
