Application

L-trans-Pyrrolidine-2,4-dicarboxylic acid has been used:
  • as a glutamate transport inhibitor to test its impairing effect on glutamate-induced cell death in HT22 neuronal cells[1]
  • as an analog of glutamate to test its effect on glutamate/glutamine-dependent acid resistance of E. coli and S. flexneri[2]
  • as sodium glutamate (Na+/Glu) cotransporter inhibitor in myogenic cell line C2C12[3]

Biochem/physiol Actions

L-trans-Pyrrolidine-2,4-dicarboxylic acid is a selective glutamate transporter inhibitor.[1]

We report a study on the regulation by 2-chloro adenosine (2CA) of a glutamate (Glu) transporter in myogenic C2C12 cells. Long-term 2CA exposition significantly increased the V(max) of the Glu transporter. Moreover, 2CA-treated cells responded to Glu challenge by a

In insects, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamate mediate fast inhibitory neurotransmission through ligand-gated chloride channel receptors. Both GABA and glutamate have been identified in the olfactory circuit of the honeybee. Here we investigated the role of inhibitory transmission mediated by
