Best Answer

The "l" should be lower case and in italic, and it can be spelled in full as "levo-". It describes the "handedness" of the amino acid molecule. The prefix "levo-" defines one orientation and "dextro-" the other possible orientation; as "l-Alanine" and "d-Alanine"; or, "dl-Alanine" for the racemic mixture of the two configurations of Alanine.
