| D-Aspartic acid Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties |
White or almost white crystalline powder |
| Uses |
A non-essential amino acid found in food sources and dietary supplements. D-Aspartic acid's conjugate base D-aspartate has potential use as a a therapeutic agent in the treatment of schizophrenia-related symptoms. |
| Definition |
ChEBI: The D-enantiomer of aspartic acid. |
| Biological Activity |
Endogenous NMDA receptor agonist with similar activity to the L-isomer (L-Aminosuccinic acid ). Also a non-metabolizable substrate for EAA uptake systems. Modulates melatonin synthesis in the pineal gland. |
