生合成
生体内では、解糖系の中間体である 3-ホスホグリセリン酸から、ホスホグリセリン酸デヒドロゲナーゼ (EC 1.1.1.95) 、ホスホセリンアミノトランスフェラーゼ (EC 2.6.1.52)、ホスホセリンホスファターゼ (EC 3.1.3.3) の働きにより合成される。
- EC 1.1.1.95 3-phosphoglycerate + NAD+ → 3-phosphohydroxypyruvate + NADH + H+
- EC 2.6.1.52 3-phosphonooxypyruvate + L-glutamate → O-phosphoserine + 2-oxoglutarate
- EC 3.1.3.3 O-phosphoserine + H2O → serine + phosphate
グリシンと可逆的に相互変換される関係にある。
機能
プリン、ピリミジン、システイン、(バクテリアでは)トリプトファンなどの生合成に関与するため、代謝において重要である。
酵素の部分構造に含まれ重要な役割を果たす。キモトリプシン、トリプシンなど多くの酵素の活性中心に存在することが示されている。いわゆる神経ガスや殺虫剤はアセチルコリンエステラーゼの活性中心のセリン残基に結合し、酵素反応を阻害することによって毒性を発揮することが知られている。神経伝達物質であるアセチルコリンがその役目を終えたあと、アセチルコリンエステラーゼがすぐに破壊して活性を失わせるが、これが作用しないと過剰のアセチルコリンが蓄積することになり、痙攣などの発作を誘発して死に至らしめる。
蛋白質の構成要素としては、側鎖のヒドロキシ基によってグリコシド結合を形成するという特徴を持つ。これは糖尿病の症状を説明する際に必要となることがある。真核生物におけるシグナル伝達の際にキナーゼによってリン酸化される3種のアミノ酸残基の1つである。リン酸化されたセリン残基はホスホセリンとよばれる。セリンプロテアーゼは典型的なタンパク質分解酵素である。

Serine (abbreviated as Ser or S)[3] is an amino acid with the formula HO2CCH(NH2)CH2OH. It is one of the proteinogenic amino acids. Its codons in the genetic code are UCU, UCC, UCA, UCG, AGU and AGC. By virtue of the hydroxyl group, serine is classified as a polar amino acid.

Occurrence and biosynthesis
(
S)-Serine (left) and (
R)-serine (right) in zwitterionic form at neutral pH
This compound is one of the naturally occurring proteinogenic amino acids. Only the L-stereoisomer appears naturally in proteins. It is not essential to the human diet, since it is synthesized in the body from other metabolites, including glycine. Serine was first obtained from silk protein, a particularly rich source, in 1865. Its name is derived from the Latin for silk, sericum. Serine's structure was established in 1902.[4]
The biosynthesis of serine starts with the oxidation of 3-phosphoglycerate to 3-phosphohydroxypyruvate and NADH. Reductive amination of this ketone followed by hydrolysis gives serine. Serine hydroxymethyltransferase catalyzes the reversible, simultaneous conversions of L-serine to glycine (retro-aldol cleavage) and 5,6,7,8-tetrahydrofolate to 5,10-methylenetetrahydrofolate (hydrolysis).[5]
This compound may also be naturally produced when UV light illuminates simple ices such as a combination of water, methanol, hydrogen cyanide, and ammonia, suggesting that it may be easily produced in cold regions of space.[6]
Production
Industrially, L-serine is produced by fermentation, with an estimated 100-1000 tonnes per year produced.[7] In the laboratory, racemic serine can be prepared from methyl acrylate via several steps:[8]
Biological function
Metabolic
Cysteine synthesis from serine. Cystathionine beta synthase catalyzes the upper reaction and cystathionine gamma-lyase catalyzes the lower reaction.
Serine is important in metabolism in that it participates in the biosynthesis of purines and pyrimidines. It is the precursor to several amino acids including glycine and cysteine, and tryptophan in bacteria. It is also the precursor to numerous other metabolites, including sphingolipids and folate, which is the principal donor of one-carbon fragments in biosynthesis.
Structural role
Serine plays an important role in the catalytic function of many enzymes. It has been shown to occur in the active sites of chymotrypsin, trypsin, and many other enzymes. The so-called nerve gases and many substances used in insecticides have been shown to act by combining with a residue of serine in the active site of acetylcholine esterase, inhibiting the enzyme completely.
As a constituent (residue) of proteins, its side chain can undergo O-linked glycosylation, which may be functionally related to[clarification needed] diabetes.
It is one of three amino acid residues that are commonly phosphorylated by kinases during cell signaling in eukaryotes. Phosphorylated serine residues are often referred to as phosphoserine.
Serine proteases are a common type of protease.
Signaling
D-Serine, synthesized in the brain by serine racemase from L-serine (its enantiomer), serves as both a neurotransmitter and a gliotransmitter by coactivating NMDA receptors, making them able to open if they then also bind glutamate. D-serine is a potent agonist at the glycine site of the NMDA-type glutamate receptor. For the receptor to open, glutamate and either glycine or D-serine must bind to it. In fact, D-serine is a more potent agonist at the glycine site on the NMDAR than glycine itself. D-serine was only thought to exist in bacteria until relatively recently; it was the second D amino acid discovered to naturally exist in humans, present as a signalling molecule in the brain, soon after the discovery of D-aspartate. Had D amino acids been discovered in humans sooner, the glycine site on the NMDA receptor might instead be named the D-serine site.[9]
Gustatory sensation
Pure D-Serine is an off-white crystalline powder with a very faint funky or dirty aroma. L-Serine is sweet with minor umami and sour tastes at high concentration. D-Serine is sweet with an additional minor sour taste at medium and high concentrations.[10]
