γ-Methyl-L-glutamic acid, also known as γ-Methylglutamic acid or GMG, is a naturally occurring non-protein amino acid. It is structurally similar to L-glutamic acid, with the addition of a methyl group at the γ-position. GMG is found in various plants, such as sugar beet and wheat germ, and is known for its potential health benefits, including its role as a neuroprotective agent, antioxidant, and cognitive enhancer. It is also used as a flavor enhancer in the food industry due to its umami taste. The chemical formula for γ-Methyl-L-glutamic acid is C6H11NO4, and it has a molecular weight of 163.16 g/mol.

2596-04-5 Usage

Check Digit Verification of cas no

The CAS Registry Mumber 2596-04-5 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 2,5,9 and 6 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 0 and 4 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 2596-04:
(6*2)+(5*5)+(4*9)+(3*6)+(2*0)+(1*4)=95
95 % 10 = 5
So 2596-04-5 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

Chemoenzymatic synthesis of glutamic acid analogues: Substrate specificity and synthetic applications of branched chain aminotransferase from Escherichia coli

Xian, Mo,Alaux, Sebastien,Sagot, Emmanuelle,Gefflaut, Thierry

, p. 7560 - 7566 (2008/03/11)

(Chemical Equation Presented) A new route to α-keto acids is described, based on the ozonolysis of enol acetates obtained from α-substituted β-keto esters. Escherichia coli branched chain aminotransferase (BCAT) activity toward a variety of substituted 2-oxoglutaric acids was demonstrated analytically. BCAT was shown to have a broad substrate spectrum, complementary to that of aspartate aminotransferase, and to offer access to a variety of glutamic acid analogues. The usefulness of BCAT was demonstrated through the synthesis of several 3- and 4-substituted derivatives.
