Description

D-glutamic acid, an enantiomer of L- glutamic acid, is widely used in pharmaceuticals and foods.


Solid


D-glutamic acid is an optically active form of glutamic acid having D-configuration. It has a role as an Escherichia coli metabolite and a mouse metabolite. It is a D-alpha-amino acid and a glutamic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a D-glutamate(1-). It is an enantiomer of a L-glutamic acid.|Glutamic acid is the most common excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system.|A non-essential amino acid naturally occurring in the L-form. Glutamic acid is the most common excitatory neurotransmitter in the CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM.

(-)-Glutamic acid Use and Manufacturing

Uses

D-Glutamic Acid is the unnatural (R)-enantiomer of Glutamic Acid, a non-essential amino acid. Its salt form (glutamate) is an important neurotransmitter that plays a key role in long-term potentiation and is important for learning and memory. Glutamic Acid is also a key molecule in cellular metabolism.
