L-γ-Carboxyglutamic acid (H-Gla-OH) is a mGluR2 antagonist with an IC50 of 102 μM. L-γ-Carboxyglutamic acid binds to the mGluR2 receptor site via the overlapping extended amino acid conformation of its amino and carboxyl groups with glutamic acid, and its additional acidic group locates in a restricted region, thereby blocking the full activation of the receptor. L-γ-Carboxyglutamic acid can be used for the research of neurological disorders.

Description

L-γ-Carboxyglutamic acid (H-Gla-OH) is a mGluR2 antagonist with an IC50 of 102 μM. L-γ-Carboxyglutamic acid binds to the mGluR2 receptor site via the overlapping extended amino acid conformation of its amino and carboxyl groups with glutamic acid, and its additional acidic group locates in a restricted region, thereby blocking the full activation of the receptor. L-γ-Carboxyglutamic acid can be used for the research of neurological disorders[1].

In Vitro

L-γ-Carboxyglutamic acid (Compound 30) acts as a competitive antagonist at rat mGluR2-expressing HEK 293 cells with an IC50 of 102 μM, binding via alignment with the extended glutamate conformation and positioning an additional acidic group in the restricted R5 region of the receptor site[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
