cis-α-(Carboxycyclopropyl)glycine
cis-α-(Carboxycyclopropyl)glycine (L-CCG III) is a potent, competitive glutamate uptake inhibitor. cis-α-(Carboxycyclopropyl)glycine is a substrate of glutamate transporters (GluT) (EC50: 13 μM, 2 μM for EAAT 1 and EAAT 2, respectively). cis-α-(Carboxycyclopropyl)glycine inhibits a Na+-dependent high-affinity L-glutamate uptake in glial plasmalemmal vesicles (GPV) and synaptosomes.
