    Monoclonal antibody is produced by immunizing animals with a synthetic peptide corresponding to residues surrounding Val240 of human serine racemase protein.

    Background

    Serine racemase, also called SRR, is an enzyme that is highly expressed in the brain and converts L-serine to D-serine (1,2). D-serine is a co-agonist of the NMDA receptor. NMDA receptor activation requires the binding of glutamate to its GluN2 subunit and the concomitant binding of either glycine or D-serine to its glycine binding site on the GluN1 subunit (3). Decreased activation of NMDA receptors is a typical feature of impaired synaptic plasticity in age-related memory deficits. Therefore, D-serine availability makes serine racemase an important therapeutic target for memory deficit associated with nonpathological aging (4).

    Alternate Names

    D-serine ammonia-lyase; D-serine dehydratase; ILV1; ISO1; L-serine ammonia-lyase; L-serine dehydratase; Serine racemase; SRR
