Isolation of γ-Aminobutyric Acid from Fruit Juice

GATMD: γ-Aminobutyric Acid Transporter Mutagenesis Database

Since the cloning of the first γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) transporter (GAT1; SLC6A1) from rat brain in 1990, more than 50 published studies have provided structure-function information on investigator-designed rat and mouse GAT1 mutants. To date, more than 200 of 599 GAT1 residues have been subjected to mutagenesis experiments by substitution with different amino acids, and the resulting transp...

Substrate Selectivity of the Acid-activated Glutamate/γ-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) Antiporter GadC from Escherichia coli*

GadC, a central component of the Escherichia coli acid resistance system, is a Glu/GABA antiporter. A previous structural study and biochemical characterization showed that GadC exhibits a stringent pH dependence for substrate transport, with no detectable activity at pH values above 6.5. However, the substrate selectivity and the mechanism of pH-dependent transport activity of GadC remain enig...

Effect of Postharvest Application of γ-Aminobutyric Acid, Methyl Jasmonate and Methyl Salicylate on Chilling Injury, Peel Attributes and Fruit Juice Quality of ‘Moro’ Blood Orange During Cold Storage

In this study, the effects of postharvest application of γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA), methyl jasmonate (MeJA) and methyl salicylate (MeSA) on chilling injury, peel attributes and fruit juice quality of ‘Moro’ blood orange during cold storage at 3 °C and 90% RH for 150 days was investigated. GABA treatment at concentrations of 20 and 40 mM using vacuum at 30 kPa for 8 minutes and MeJA and MeSA va...
