What does DL-Phenylalanine do?

DL-phenylalanine refers to a racemic mixture consisting of 50% D-phenylalanine and 50% L-phenylalanine. L-phenylalanine is an essential protein amino acid. D-phenylalanine is the enantiomer of L-phenylalanine. D-phenylalanine is a nonprotein amino acid, meaning that it does not participate in protein biosynthesis. D-phenylalanine and other D-amino acids are, however, found in proteins, in small amounts, particularly aged proteins and food proteins that have been processed. The biological functions of D-amino acids remain unclear. Some D-amino acids, such as D-phenylalanine, may have pharmacologic activity.
