N-Fmoc-D-serine is an N-Fmoc-protected form of D-Serine. D-Serine is a neurotransmitter that is concentrated in the mammalian brain, and is one of the very few amino acids that occur in the D- and L-configurations in significant amounts. D-Serine is a potent agonist of the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor in the brain, which is associated with schizophrenia. Use of D-Serine has been considered as an additional therapy for refractory schizophrenic patients.

1."O-acyl isopeptide method" for peptide synthesis: synthesis of forty kinds of "O-acyl isodipeptide unit" Boc-Ser/Thr(Fmoc-Xaa)-OH.
Yoshiya T1, Taniguchi A, Sohma Y, Fukao F, Nakamura S, Abe N, Ito N, Skwarczynski M, Kimura T, Hayashi Y, Kiso Y. Org Biomol Chem. 2007 Jun 7;5(11):1720-30. Epub 2007 Apr 25.
The O-acyl isopeptide method has recently received attention as an efficient synthetic method for peptides. Herein, forty kinds of "O-acyl isodipeptide unit" Boc-Ser/Thr(Fmoc-Xaa)-OH (1-40) were effectively synthesized in two-steps without epimerization. The O-acyl isodipeptide units are important building blocks to enable the routine use of the O-acyl isopeptide method.
