Also known as dopa D-form, (+)-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)alanine, (+)-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, D-3-(3,4-dihydroxyphenyl)alanine, D-3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, 3-hydroxy-D-tyrosine, 3,4-dihydroxy-D-phenylalanine
-DOPA dextrodopa) is similar to (levodopa), but with opposite chirality. Levo- and dextro- rotation refer to a molecule's ability to rotate planes of polarized light in one or the other direction. Whereas is moderately effective in the treatment of Parkinson's disease (PD) and dopamine-responsive dystonia (DRD) by stimulating the production of dopamine in the brain, is biologically inactive.
