Application
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.
D-Glutamic acid acts as a superior to alpha ketoglutarate. It helps in the growth of Lactobacillus arabinosus. It can inhibit the IgE binding to peanut allergens. It is widely used in pharmaceuticals and foods.
D-glutamic acid is suitable for use in the structure-affinity relationship (SAR)-study of GR (glutamate racemase) enzyme and its inhibitors.
