DL-Dopa is a dopamine precursor. It serves as a substrate for Mushroom Tyrosinase, which oxidizes it to dopaquinone, an intermediate in the DOPA-melanin polymerization process, and this reaction can be detected at 475 nm. DL-Dopa also forms synergistic hydrophobic and pi-pi stacking interactions with cationic surfactants. Its binding to cetylpyridinium chloride (HY-B1464) is stronger and exhibits better thermodynamic stability than its binding to benzalkonium chloride (HY-B2232). DL-Dopa can compensate for dopamine depletion in the brain and is applicable to research related to Parkinsons disease[1][2].
