β-Alanine
β-Alanine (3-Aminopropanoic acid) is a naturally occurring β-amino acid, metabolically derived from dihydrouracil and carnosine. It functions as a neurotransmitter by modulating glycine and GABA receptors. This compound is utilized in neuroscience research to study inhibitory neurotransmission in both in vitro and in vivo experimental models.
