Additionnal Information

(R) -Serine is the R-enantiomer of serine, which is used in the biosynthesis of proteins. (R) -Serine acts as obligatory coagonist at the glycine site associated with the N-methyl-D-aspartate subtype of glutamate receptors (NMDAR) and has a cardinal modulatory role in major NMDAR-dependent processes including NMDAR-mediated neurotransmission, neurotoxicity, synaptic plasticity, and cell migration.
