title: Oxidation of D-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid by hog kidney D-aminoacid oxidase.
abstract: D-Thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid is a good substrate for hog kidney D-aminoacid oxidase. Data are presented showing that the only oxidation product is delta 3-thiazoline-4-carboxylic acid, which does not undergo further spontaneous degradation. Thus, the oxidation of D-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid by D-aminoacid oxidase differs considerably from the oxidation of its L-isomer catalyzed by rat liver mitochondria which gives as final product N-formylcystine, possibly through the intermediate delta 2-thiazoline-4-carboxylic acid.
