| biological activity | D-Cysteine is the D-isomer of cysteine and is a potent inhibitor of E. Coli growth. D-Cysteine H2S production is mediated by D-amino acid oxidase and is a neuroprotective agent against cerebellar ataxia. D-Cysteine inhibits the growth and cariogenicity of two-species biofilms formed by S. Mutans and S. Haemophilus. |
