L-Norvaline is an analog of the branched chain amino acid valine. 

L-Norvaline (L-2-aminopentanoic-acid) is a nor isomer of L-valine. L-Norvaline, however, appears to have none of the physiological effects of L-valine. Instead its main action in the body appears to be as an arginase enzyme inhibitor. This action appears to increase the levels of L-arginine in the body, and subsequently increases the production of nitric oxide (NO).

L-Norvaline is an analog of the amino acid L-valine. Research shows that L-norvaline is a strong inhibitor of arginase activity because of its structural similarity to ornithine, which causes a feedback regulation on the activity of arginase. When you inhibit arginase, NO is produced continuously at a higher rate in the presence of NOS and adequate L-arginine. L-arginine is the limiting factor for NO production from NOS, so inhibiting the arginase enzyme effectively increases the production of NO by as much as 60%.
