White cryst. powder | [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. | [Definition]
ChEBI: An optically active form of glutamic acid having D-configuration. | [General Description]
D-Glutamic acid is an essential constituent of the bacterial peptidoglycan structure. It is added to UDP-N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanine (UDP-MurNAc-L-alanine) by the enzyme D-glutamic acid-adding enzyme (murD). This is, then, incorporated into the peptidoglycan precursor. Peptidoglycan makes up the cell walls of Gram-positive and -negative bacteria. The conversion of L-glutamate to D-glutamate by glutamate racemase (GR) enzyme is an essential step in the synthesis of peptidoglycan. | [Biological Activity]
Excitatory amino acid acting at NMDA receptors; less active than the L-isomer. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
