| D-AP5 Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | D-AP5 is a selective N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonist (Kd = 1.4 μM) that competitively inhibits the glutamate binding site of NMDA receptors. Whereas D-AP5 is the active (−)-stereoisomer, its (+)-isomer (L-AP5) demonstrates considerably less potent NMDA receptor antagonist activity. AP5 has been widely used to study the activity of NMDA receptors particularly in regard to researching synaptic plasticity, learning, and memory. | | Chemical Properties | white fine crystalline powder | | Uses | A competitive NMDA antagonist | | General Description | Active enantiomer of DL-2-amino-5-phosphonopentanoic acid (AP5) that is a commonly used competitive NMDA receptor antagonist. | | Biological Activity | Widely used competitive NMDA antagonist. More active form of AP5. Also agonist at quisqualate-sensitized AP6 site where it is less potent than the L-isomer (L-(+)-2-Amino-5-phosphonopentanoic acid ). Also available as part of the Mixed NMDA Receptor Tocriset™ . | | Biochem/physiol Actions | Product does not compete with ATP. |
