Gamma acid

Description:
Gamma acid, also known as gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), is a naturally occurring amino acid that functions primarily as a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system. It is characterized by its role in inhibiting neuronal excitability throughout the nervous system, thereby contributing to the regulation of muscle tone and the modulation of anxiety. 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 chemical structure features an amine group, which is responsible for its classification as an amino acid. GABA is involved in various physiological processes, including the promotion of relaxation and the reduction of stress, making it a subject of interest in both pharmacological research and dietary supplementation. Additionally, it is important in the synthesis of other neurotransmitters and plays a role in metabolic pathways. Its CAS number, 90-51-7, is used for identification in chemical databases and regulatory contexts.
