• Marke: Biosynth
• Beschreibung: DL-2-Methylglutamic acid hemihydrate is a biologically active compound that is used in the synthesis of L-glutamate. It has been found to be an efficient catalyst for the asymmetric synthesis of carboxylates. DL-2-Methylglutamic acid hemihydrate has been shown to be a potent inhibitor of glutamate dehydrogenase, an enzyme involved in the metabolism of glutamate, which may have implications for the treatment of neurological disorders and epilepsy. The DL-2-Methylglutamic acid hemihydrate molecule has also been shown to bind to the active site of carboxylate enzymes such as glutamate decarboxylase and ornithine transcarbamoylase. This binding blocks access by ATP and leads to conformational changes in these enzymes, inhibiting their catalytic activity.
