γ-Acetylenic GABA (4-Aminohex-5-ynoic acid) is an irreversible inhibitor of GABA-transaminase. γ-Acetylenic GABA can increase the concentration of GABA in rat brain. γ-Acetylenic GABA is a click chemistry reagent, it contains an Alkyne group and can undergo copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAc) with molecules containing Azide groups.
γ-Acetylenic GABA (100 mg/kg i.p.) inhibits GABA-transaminase activity and causes a several-fold increase in the concentration of GABA in rat brain[2].
GABA-transaminase[1] In Vivo γ-Acetylenic GABA (100 mg/kg i.p.) inhibits GABA-transaminase activity and causes a several-fold increase in the concentration of GABA in rat brain[2]. MedChemExpress (MCE) has not independently confirmed the accuracy of these methods. They are for reference only.
