The unanticipated complexity of the selectivity-filter glutamates of nicotinic receptors
In ion channels, “rings” of ionized side chains that decorate the walls of the permeation pathway often lower the energetic barrier to ion conduction.

Multisite phosphorylation of guanylyl cyclase (GC)-A, also known as NPR-A or NPR1, is required for receptor activation by natriuretic peptides (NPs) because alanine substitutions for the first four GC-A phosphorylation sites produce an enzyme that cannot

Epileptic syndromes have very diverse primary causes, which may be genetic, developmental or acquired. In rodent models, altering glutamate receptor or glutamate transporter expression by knockout or knockdown procedures can induce or suppress epileptic seizures.

Glutamate Taste: Discrimination between the Tastes of Glutamate Agonists and Monosodium Glutamate in Rats [PDF]
Taste aversion studies have demonstrated that rats conditioned to avoid monosodium glutamate (MSG) with amiloride added to reduce the intensity of the sodium component of MSG taste, generalize this aversion to aspartic acid and to L-AP4, but not to ionotropic glutamate receptor agonists.

Coding sequences of the CLC family genes SaCLCd, SaCLCf, and SaCLCg, the putative orthologs of Arabidopsis thaliana AtCLCd, AtCLCf, and AtCLCg genes, were cloned from the euhalophyte Suaeda altissima (L.) Pall.

Glutamate transporter control of ambient glutamate levels
Accurate knowledge of the ambient extracellular glutamate concentration in brain is required for understanding its potential impacts on tonic and phasic receptor signaling. Estimates of ambient glutamate based on microdialysis measurements are generally in the range of ∼2-10μM, approximately 100-fold higher than estimates based on electrophysiological ...

The reaction of arylidene-α-amino esters with electrophilic alkenes to yield Michael-type addition compounds is optimized using several phosphines as organocatalysts. The transformation is very complicated due to the generation of several final compounds,

Synthesis of N -(4-propargylaminobenzoyl)-L-glutamates
To facilitate the rather labour consuming synthesis of antifolate γ-oligo-L-glutamates including those with the propargyl group at position N10 , two synthons possessing this group, α-t-butyl γ-methyl N-(4-propargylaminobenzoyl)- L-glutamate (1) and a-t ...

The natriuretic peptide receptors NPR1 and NPR2, also known as guanylyl cyclase A and guanylyl cyclase B, have critical functions in many signaling pathways, but much remains unknown about their localization and function in vivo. To facilitate studies of

Pharmacotherapy of Schizophrenia: Ploypharmacy Approaches [PDF]
Schizophrenia is a debilitating illness, rating as one of the leading causes of lost years of quality of life. The illness imposes a disproportionate burden on patients and their families, healthcare systems and society. Pharmacological management is the
