Biochem/physiol Actions

DL-2-Allylglycine is a racemic mixture of L- and D-allylglycine. D-allylglycine is the enantiomer of L-allylglycine, a glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) inhibitor used in GABA research. D-allylglycine may be used as a control supplement versus L-allylglycine in GABA research. D-allylglycine is used in the organic synthesis of cyclic opioid peptide agonists and antagonists.

The effect of DL-allylglycine (DL-AG) in two doses (40 and 60 mg/kg i.v.) was studied on cats under acute conditions. DL-AG provoked the appearance of epileptiform EEG patterns either spontaneous or in response to intermittent light stimulation with a frequency

The influence of decreased endogenous gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) concentration on benzodiazepine receptor function was studied in the brain of living baboons. Positron emission tomography and the radiotracer [11C]flumazenil combined with electroencephalography were used to determine the pharmacological properties of two

GABA released from accumbal GABAergic interneurons plays an inhibitory role in the regulation of dopamine efflux through GABA(B) and GABA(A) receptors located on accumbal dopaminergic nerve endings. The cytosolic newly synthesised GABA alters vesicular GABA levels and, accordingly, the amount

Spontaneous mutants which acquired the ability to utilize d-allylglycine (d-2-amino-4-pentenoic acid) and dl-cis-crotylglycine (dl-2-amino-cis-4-hexenoic acid) but not l-allylglycine or dl-trans-crotylglycine could be readily isolated from Pseudomonas putida mt-2 (PaM1). Derivative strains of PaM1 putatively cured of the TOL (pWWO) plasmid
