L-Glutamic acid monosodium salt monohydrate functions as a neurotransmitter in the central nervous system, playing a key role in excitatory synaptic transmission. It acts as an agonist at glutamate receptors, specifically the NMDA and AMPA receptors, leading to the depolarization of postsynaptic neurons. This chemical also serves as a precursor for the synthesis of GABA, an inhibitory neurotransmitter, through the action of the enzyme glutamate decarboxylase. Additionally, L-Glutamic acid monosodium salt monohydrate is involved in the citric acid cycle, serving as an intermediate in the metabolism of carbohydrates and amino acids. Its mode of action involves binding to specific receptors and enzymes, leading to the modulation of neuronal activity and the regulation of metabolic processes within the cell.
