The effects of 4-fluoroglutamate on the reaction catalyzed by partially purified rat liver folylpolyglutamate synthetase have been investigated. DL-threo-4-Fluoroglutamate was an effective, concentration-dependent inhibitor of polyglutamylation of both tetrahydrofolate and methotrexate, while the erythro isomer was weakly inhibitory. 4-Fluoroglutamate acted

Inhibition of rat brain glutamate decarboxylase (GAD, EC 4.1.1.15) by individual stereoisomers of 4-fluoroglutamate (4-F-Glu) and 2-fluoro-4-aminobutyrate (2-F-GABA) was studied. All stereoisomers of 4-F-Glu inhibited decarboxylation of L-glutamate catalysed by the enzyme preparation. At 1 x 10(-2) M concentration, the
Effects of D,L-4-fluoroglutamic acid on glutamylation of methotrexate by hepatic cells in vitro.
The Journal of biological chemistry, 258(13), 7897-7899 (1983-07-10)
Two pentapeptides Phe-Leu-X-Glu-Val where X is either the L-threo-gamma-fluoroglutamic acid or the L-erythro-isomer have been synthesized and tested as substrates in the vitamin K-dependent carboxylation. Both peptides are carboxylated, but the reaction occurs exclusively on the glutamic acid of the
