L-Tyrosine benzyl ester is derived from the aromatic amino acid L-Tyrosine. It acts as an agonist at the 5-HT2A receptor, which is involved in the regulation of neurotransmitter release and receptor activity. This results in the release of serotonin and dopamine. In addition, L-Tyrosine benzyl ester activates other receptors, such as the dopamine D2 receptor, which is involved in the regulation of reward and pleasure. It is also used to study the structure and function of proteins and enzymes. In laboratory experiments, it may act to have anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-cancer effects.
