D-glutamic acid is an optically active form of glutamic acid having D-configuration. It has a role as an Escherichia coli metabolite and a mouse metabolite. It is a D-alpha-amino acid and a glutamic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a D-glutamate(1-). It is an enantiomer of a L-glutamic acid.

Glutamic acid (symbol Glu or E; [4] known as glutamate in its anionic form) is an α-amino acid that is used by almost all living beings in the biosynthesis of proteins. It is a non-essential nutrient for humans, meaning that the human body can synthesize enough for its use.

IgE is specific for D- [Asp/Glu] and may have the potential for removing IgE or reducing IgE binding to peanut allergens. D-glutamic acid is currently paid attention as a modulator of neuronal transmission and hormonal secretion. It is metabolized only by D-aspartate oxidase in mammals.

D-Glutamic acid is an essential constituent of the bacterial peptidoglycan structure. It is added to UDP-N-acetylmuramyl-L-alanine (UDP-MurNAc-L-alanine) by the enzyme D-glutamic acid-adding enzyme (murD).

Its aldohexose stereoisomer, dextrose or D-glucose, is the most commonly occurring isomer of glucose in nature. L-glucose is a synthesized enantiomer that is used as a low-calorie sweetener and laxative.

May 26, 2017 · Here we present a strategy for generating effective bacterial whole-cell vaccines auxotrophic for D-glutamate. We apply this strategy to generate D-glutamate auxotrophic vaccines for...

Dec 10, 2015 · D-Aspartic acid (D-Asp) and D-glutamic acid (D-Glu) are currently paid attention as modulators of neuronal transmission and hormonal secretion. These two D-amino acids are metabolized only by D-aspartate oxidase (DDO) in mammals.

Nov 22, 2023 · Glutamic acid is one of the most common non-essential amino acids. German chemist Karl Ritthausen first isolated Glutamic acid from the wheat gluten in 1866, but its chemical structure was identified only in 1890. Symbol: Three-letter code - Glu. One-letter code - E.

D-glutamate (D-Glu) is an essential component of bacterial peptidoglycans, representing an important, yet overlooked, pool of organic matter in global oceans. However, little is known on D-Glu catabolism by marine microorganisms. Here, a novel catabolic pathway for D-Glu was identified using the mar …
