Metabolite Identification
Common NameN-methyl-L-glutamic Acid
DescriptionN-methyl-L-glutamic Acid, also known as N-Methylglutamate or (2S)-2-(methylamino)Pentanedioic acid, is classified as a glutamic acid or a Glutamic acid derivative. Glutamic acids are compounds containing glutamic acid or a derivative thereof resulting from reaction of glutamic acid at the amino group or the carboxy group, or from the replacement of any hydrogen of glycine by a heteroatom. N-methyl-L-glutamic Acid is considered to be soluble (in water) and acidic
