The nature of highly anisotropic free-electron-like states in a glycinate monolayer on Cu(100) [PDF]
J. Phys. Cond. Matter 20, 312002 (2008), 2007 The free-electron-like state observed in a scanning tunneling spectroscopy study of a chiral p(2x4) monolayer of glycinate ions on the Cu(100) surface [K. Kanazawa et al, J. Am. Chem. Soc. 129, 740 (2007)] is shown from density functional theory calculations to originate from a Cu Shockley surface state at the surface Brillouin zone boundary of the ...

The Influence of Crystallinity Degree on the Glycine Decomposition Induced by 1 MeV Proton Bombardment in Space Analog Conditions [PDF]
, 2012 Glycine is the simplest proteinaceous amino acid and is present in all life-forms on Earth. In aqueous solutions, it appears mainly as zwitterion glycine (+NH3CH2COO-); however, in solid phase, it may be found in amorphous or crystalline (alpha, beta, and gamma) forms.

A Rigorous Attempt to Verify Interstellar Glycine [PDF]
Astrophys.J. 619 (2005) 914-930, 2004 In 2003, Kuan, Charnley, and co-workers reported the detection of interstellar glycine (NH2CH2COOH) based on observations of 27 lines in 19 different spectral bands in one or more of the sources Sgr B2(N-LMH), Orion KL, and W51 e1/e2. They supported their detection report with rotational temperature diagrams for all three sources.

The cardiometabolic benefits of glycine: Is glycine an ‘antidote’ to dietary fructose? [PDF]
Open Heart, 2014 Supplemental glycine, via activation of glycine-gated chloride channels that are expressed on a number of types of cells, including Kupffer cells, macrophages, lymphocytes, platelets, cardiomyocytes and endothelial cells, has been found to exert anti-inflammatory, immunomodulatory, cytoprotective, platelet-stabilising and antiangiogenic effects in ...

The radiation stability of glycine in solid CO2 - in situ laboratory measurements with applications to Mars [PDF]
2015, Icarus 252, 466-472, 2015 The detection of biologically important, organic molecules on Mars is an important goal that may soon be reached. However, the current small number of organic detections at the Martian surface may be due to the harsh UV and radiation conditions there.

A non-energetic mechanism for glycine formation in the interstellar medium [PDF]
Nature Astronomy published online 16 November 2020, 2020 The detection of the amino acid glycine and its amine precursor methylamine on the comet 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko by the Rosetta mission provides strong evidence for a cosmic origin of prebiotics on Earth. How and when such complex organic molecules form along the process of star- and planet-formation remains debated.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2019 Significance Phgdh is a crucial enzyme in the astrocytic synthesis of l-serine from glucose. Our study uncovers the role of glial-neuronal cross-talk in regulating NMDAR synaptic activation through the astrocytic export of Phgdh-derived l-serine to ...
