2-Amino-3-(5-methyl-3-oxo-1,2-oxazol-4-yl)propanoic acid with CAS number of 74341-63-2 is also known as (R,S)-2-Amino-3-(3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolyl)propionic acid ; (RS)-Ampa ; (R,S)-A-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid ; (RS)-Alfa-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid ; (RS)-Alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid ; 2-Amino-3-(3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazol-4-yl)propanoic acid ; (+/-)-Alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid ; (+/-)-Alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methylisoxazole-4-propionic acid hydrate . It shoud avoid breathing dust, vapor, mist, or gas. Avoid contact with skin and eyes. Store in a tightly closed container. Keep refrigerated. (Store below 4°C/39°F.)
|
Biological Activity: | Prototypical and defining agonist for the AMPA subgroup of ionotropic glutamate receptors. |
Storage Temperature: | 0-6°C |
Color: | white |
Usage: | A potent and selective agonist of the putative, excitatory neurotransmitter L-glutamic acid. AMPA does not interfere with binding sites for kainic acid in vitro, and AMPA- induced neuronal excitation is not significantly affected by NMDA antagonists. |
