L-glutamic acid (glutamic acid) is a naturally produced proteinogenic non-essential amino acid that plays a role in neural activation. It is the most common excitatory neurotransmitter in the CNS. Acts as an agonist of the glutamate receptors (metabotropic, kainate, nMDA, and AMPA). May be dysregulated in nervous system disorders, such as epilepsy. Provided as 10 mg of dry powder. These highly purified, pre-validated control ligands have been used to qualify our InCELL Hunter, PathHunter and cAMP Hunter cell lines as well as our Assay Ready Kits. Ligands are conveniently supplied with a recommended reconstitution buffer. For detailed information and product-specific datasheet, visit www.discoverx.com/ligands.
