In Xenopus oocytes, injected with mRNA from the brain of the rat, the characteristics of the cyclic homologues of glycine, ACPC, ACBC and cycloleucine have been examined. 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate was a potent agonist at the NMDA-associated glycine site (EC50 = 0.09

Arachidonic acid [20:4(N-6)] has been implicated in neurological damage induced by cerebral ischaemia. Membrane arachidonate concentrations can be reduced by changes in dietary fat intake. Therefore, in the present study, we have investigated the effects of N-3 fatty acid supplementation
The chemical mechanism of the final step of ethylene biosynthesis (the conversion of 1-aminocyclopropanecarboxylic acid, ACC, to ethylene by ACC oxidase, the ethylene-forming enzyme, EFE) is poorly understood. Two possibilities have been suggested: a radical mechanism and an N-hydroxylation mechanism.
We partially purified 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate (ACC) oxidase from senescing petals of carnation (Dianthus caryophyllus L. cv. Nora) flowers and investigated its general characteristics, and, in particular, the inhibition of its activity by ACC analogs. The enzyme had an optimum pH at

ACBC has been reported to have the binding profile of an antagonist at the glycine site of the NMDA receptor. In Xenopus oocytes injected with rat brain mRNA, we have confirmed the antagonist action of ACBC on NMDA responses. ACBC
