(-)-3-Aminobutyric acid

Description:

(-)-3-Aminobutyric acid, commonly known as gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), is a non-proteinogenic amino acid that serves as a key neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. It is characterized by its role in inhibitory neurotransmission, helping to regulate neuronal excitability throughout the nervous system. GABA is a colorless, crystalline solid that is soluble in water and exhibits a slightly acidic nature due to the presence of a carboxylic acid group. Its molecular structure includes an amine group, which contributes to its basicity, and a carboxyl group, which imparts acidic properties. GABA is involved in various physiological processes, including muscle relaxation, anxiety reduction, and the modulation of mood. It is also studied for its potential therapeutic applications in treating conditions such as epilepsy, anxiety disorders, and insomnia. The compound is typically synthesized through the decarboxylation of glutamic acid and is available in various forms, including supplements and pharmaceutical preparations.
