A phosphorylated amino acid involved in metabolism.
O-Phosphoserine is the amino acid serine carrying a phosphate group. It is a building block for phosphoproteins and an intermediate in serine and phospholipid metabolism. It appears in plasma in very small amounts.
O-Phosphoserine is reported as part of a full amino acid profile. It sits at very low levels in healthy adults and is mainly a supporting data point rather than a routine health marker. It is read in the context of the whole profile.
Aniva reads your result against research-backed ranges, not just the lab's wide normal. The reference shown below is specific to this biomarker.
Adult fasting plasma, guidance only:
| Analyte | Typical adult range (µmol/L) |
|---|---|
| O-Phosphoserine | 0 to 2 |
Ranges vary by laboratory and assay and are read as part of the full amino acid profile.
Results are affected by recent diet, recent protein intake, fasting state and the time of day the sample is taken.
