TACA (Standard)
TACA (Standard) is the analytical standard of TACA. This product is intended for research and analytical applications. TACA (trans-4-Aminocrotonic acid) is a potent agonist of GABAA and GABAC receptors (KD= 0.6 μM). TACA also is GABA uptake inhibitor and substrate for GABA-T. TACA produces late biphasic responses in the MPG neurons[1][2][3].
