Description

D-Allylglycine is a l-amino acid with the chemical formula of CH2CH(CH3)COOH. D-Allylglycine binds to the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor and has been shown in animal studies to have effects on blood pressure, although its clinical relevance remains unclear. It is an enantiopure compound and can be obtained as a trifluoroacetate salt or ethyl diazoacetate ester hydrochloride. D-Allylglycine is also an aminoglycoside and ester hydrochloride that can be used for the treatment of bacterial infections. The amino group in D-allylglycine binds to glutamate receptors, which are found on neurons, and inhibits the release of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). This drug may also have potential as a serotonergic agent due to its ability to inhibit serotonin re
