Metabolite Identification
Common NameL-Aspartic acid
DescriptionL-Aspartic acid, also known as Asp or D, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as aspartic acid and derivatives. Aspartic acid and derivatives are compounds containing an aspartic acid or a derivative thereof resulting from reaction of aspartic acid at the amino group or the carboxy group, or from the replacement of any hydrogen of glycine by a heteroatom. L-Aspartic acid exists as a solid, possibly soluble (in water), and a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa) molecule. L-Aspartic acid exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. L-Aspartic acid has been found to be associated with several diseases known as frontotemporal dementia, pancreatic cancer, cirrhosis, and perillyl alcohol administration for cancer treatment; also l-aspartic acid has been linked to the inborn metabolic disorders including growth hormone deficiency.

Q2HJH1
Molecular weight:
51828.0
General function:
Amino acid transport and metabolism
Specific function:
Biosynthesis of L-glutamate from L-aspartate or L-cysteine. Important regulator of levels of glutamate, the major excitatory neurotransmitter of the vertebrate central nervous system. Acts as a scavenger of glutamate in brain neuroprotection. The aspartate aminotransferase activity is involved in hepatic glucose synthesis during development and in adipocyte glyceroneogenesis. Using L-cysteine as substrate, regulates levels of mercaptopyruvate, an important source of hydrogen sulfide. Mercaptopyruvate is converted into H(2)S via the action of 3-mercaptopyruvate sulfurtransferase (3MST). Hydrogen sulfide is an important synaptic modulator and neuroprotectant in the brain (By similarity).
