Cycloserine works as an antibiotic by inhibiting cell-wall biosynthesis in bacteria. As a cyclic analogue of D-alanine, cycloserine acts against two crucial enzymes important in the cytosolic stages of peptidoglycan synthesis: alanine racemase (Alr) and D-alanine:D-alanine ligase (Ddl).
In healthy Chinese volunteers, Zhou et al. have shown that cycloserine follows linear pharmacokinetics, with average Cmax values of 19.4, 42.9, and 84.8 mg/liter after single doses of 250, 500, and 750 mg, respectively.
