Glutamine uptake and metabolism to N-acetylaspartylglutamate (NAAG) by crayfish axons and glia

COMPARATIVE BIOCHEMISTRY AND PHYSIOLOGY B-BIOCHEMISTRY & MOLECULAR BIOLOGY, 133(2), 209–220.

By: J. Buttram n, J. Engler n, R. Grossfield, A. Urazaev* & E. Lieberman*

author keywords: axon; glia; NAAG; glutamate; glutamine; transporter
MeSH headings : Amino Acids / pharmacology; Animals; Astacoidea / metabolism; Astacoidea / physiology; Axons / metabolism; Dipeptides / biosynthesis; Glutamine / metabolism; Neuroglia / metabolism; Neurotransmitter Agents / biosynthesis; Radioactive Tracers; Sodium / pharmacology; Tritium
TL;DR: It is reported here, that crayfish central nerve fibers synthesize NAAG from exogenous glutamine, and the metabolism and release of radiolabeled glutamine was influenced by extracellular Na(+). (via Semantic Scholar)

2002 journal article

Properties of glutaminase of crayfish CNS: Implications for axon-glia signaling

NEUROSCIENCE, 114(3), 699–705.

By: J. Engler n, J. Gottesman n, J. Harkins n, A. Urazaev*, E. Lieberman* & R. Grossfeld n

author keywords: N-acetylaspartylglutamate; glutamate; glutamine
MeSH headings : Animals; Astacoidea / enzymology; Axons / drug effects; Axons / enzymology; Central Nervous System / drug effects; Central Nervous System / enzymology; Glutaminase / antagonists & inhibitors; Glutaminase / metabolism; Neuroglia / drug effects; Neuroglia / enzymology; Signal Transduction / drug effects; Signal Transduction / physiology
TL;DR: The results suggest that crayfish glutaminase activity is regulated by cellular changes in pH and glutamate concentration, which could impact availability of the axon-glia signaling agents glutamate and N-acetylaspartylglutamate. (via Semantic Scholar)
