Amino acid supplements have soared in popularity in recent years. Social-media influencers peddle them with promises that ...

Elongation, a crucial step in the translation process of protein synthesis, gets disrupted by amino acid sequences with an abundance of N-terminal aspartic and glutamic acid residues in eukaryotic ...

The development of anxiety in girls and young women may stem from an imbalance between two crucial brain chemicals, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) and glutamate, according to a new study from the ...

Evidence shows that IRD was mainly triggered by nascent peptides with N-terminals rich in aspartic and glutamic acid sequences. Since translation mechanisms are conserved, researchers began to ...

‘Polyglutamic acid is a multifunctional biopolymer produced via fermentation of L-glutamic acid with bacteria,’ explains Dr. Marko Lens, founder of Zelens. In layman’s terms? It’s a ...

But not fish. In fact, fish are at least indirectly part of the problem. More on that in a moment. Why? It all comes down to glutamic acid receptors—something that’s far from intuitively obvious. I’ll ...
