D-GLUTAMIC-2,3,3,4,4-D5 ACID

Description:

D-Glutamic-2,3,3,4,4-D5 acid, with the CAS number 14341-88-9, is a stable isotopic form of the amino acid D-glutamic acid, where five hydrogen atoms have been replaced by deuterium, a heavier isotope of hydrogen. This modification allows for enhanced tracking and analysis in various biochemical and metabolic studies, particularly in research involving metabolic pathways and protein synthesis. D-glutamic acid itself is a non-essential amino acid that plays a crucial role in cellular metabolism and neurotransmission. It is involved in the synthesis of proteins and serves as a precursor for other important biomolecules. The presence of deuterium can influence the physical and chemical properties of the compound, such as its solubility and stability, although the fundamental characteristics of D-glutamic acid remain largely unchanged. This compound is often utilized in research settings, particularly in studies involving isotopic labeling and tracing in biological systems.

D-Glutamic Acid-d5

Controlled Product

CAS: 14341-88-9

Applications D-Glutamic Acid-d5 is the isotope labelled analog of D-Glutamic Acid. 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.
