DL-2-AMINOADIPIC ACID Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Crystalline

Uses

An amino acid isolated from Cholera vibrio

Uses

DL-2-Aminoadipic acid is a labeled amino acid which is used in chemical research and as pharmaceutical intermediate.

Definition

ChEBI: An alpha-amino acid that is adipic acid bearing a single amino substituent at position 2. An intermediate in the formation of lysine.

Biochem/physiol Actions

DL-2-Aminoadipic acid (AAA) is a six-carbon homolog of glutamate and a gliotoxic compound. It is generally used to considerably reduce the number of astroglia in cerebellar cultures that acts as a model to study the mechanisms of a-aminoadipic acid induced glial toxicity.

Purification Methods

Crystallise the acid from H2O. Alternatively purify it by precipitating the Cu salt and decomposing
