| L-Glutamic acid Usage And Synthesis |
| One of the 20 kinds of common amino acid |
Glutamate is one of the 20 common α-amino acids constituting the protein. It acts as the precursor of biosynthesis of glutamine, proline and arginine. It is divided into three forms including L-handed, right-handed and racemic body. The left handed is L-glutamate which is the coding amino acid participating in protein synthesis and is a kind of non-essential mammalian amino acids, and can be converted from glucose inside the body. At room temperature, it is a white or colorless flaky crystal, slightly acidic, and is non-toxic. It is slightly soluble in cold water but easily soluble in hot water and almost insoluble in ether, acetone and acetic acid as well as in ethanol and methanol. It undergoes sublimation at 200 ℃ and decomposed at 247 ℃ -249 ℃ with a density of 1.538g/cm3 and optical rotation being + 37- + 38.9 (25 ℃). L-glutamate has wide applications. It is a kind of drug can be used for treating hepatic coma. It can also be used to produce MSG (monosodium glutamate), research food additives, spices and also used for biochemistry studies. The production of glutamate is based on the microbial fermentation using carbohydrate as the raw material and applying "Isoelectric point extraction" plus "ion exchange resin" for separate it. Glutamate is ubiquitous in nature. Glutamate salt is distributed in a variety of food as well as in human body. It is both a kind of amino acid constituting protein or peptide and free amino acids. Its L-amino acids form has delicious taste. Glutamate was first discovered by Rizzo Johnson in 1856. It is a colorless crystal with good flavor and is slightly soluble in water and soluble in hydrochloric acid solution. It has an isoelectric point of 3.22. It is presented a large number of proteins in the grain. Its content in animal brain is also high. Glutamate plays an important role in the protein metabolism in vivo and participates in many important biochemical reactions of animals, plants as well as microorganisms. |
| Application history |
Glutamate is named due to that it is originally produced from grain. It is widely distributed in almost the composition of all kinds of protein. Proteolysis can generate obtain glutamate. It is colorless plate-like crystals with an isoelectric point of 3.3. It is soluble in water but insoluble in benzene, ether and some other organic solvents. Its aqueous solution is acidic and thus it belongs to acidic amino acid. In physiology, glutamate, together with glycine, cysteine, can form glutathione which has important physiological functions. Glutamic acid has umami with MSG being its sodium salt. MSG will be broken down under high heat so should be avoid subjecting to strong heating. Japanese chemist Ikeda first discovered MSG. By chance, he felt a delicious taste when drinking seaweed soup. After careful study, he extracted 2 g sodium glutamate from 100 kg of kelp extract. Later, the Japanese produce MSG in large-scale, referred to as "Ajinomoto."In the 1930s, China began to produce MSG started in Shanghai “TianChu” MSG factory. It is further sold to other countries and became famous. MSG is commonly produced as below: first hydrolyze native gliadin or casein, then adjust the solution pH to 3.3 to obtain the glutamate precipitate; after separation, add an appropriate amount of sodium hydroxide to become MSG. MSG can also be artificially synthesized, but the cost is expensive and usually is still through the above protein hydrolysis approach. After the 1960s, the Japanese began apply microbial fermentation for production of glutamate. They placed curtobacterium, Micrococcus, and Bacillus spp into saccharide (mainly starch, glucose), plus urea, ammonium sulfate, ammonium chloride and proper amount of biotin and other nutrients; under these conditions, these bacteria began secrete large quantities of glutamate for the manufacturing of MSG. At present, China has also applied microbial fermentation for producing MSG. Glutamate can also combine with the ammonia in the blood to become non-toxic. It can also be used for the treatment of hepatic coma and recovering from liver dysfunction and other diseases. The above information is edited by the chemicalbook of Dai Xiongfeng. |
| The significance of amino acid metabolism |
1. Glutamate participates in the joint de-amination reaction with glutamate dehydrogenase being the center (glutamate get deaminated). 2. Ammonia transport; glutamine synthetase catalyze the combination between glutamate and ammonia to generate glutamine. Glutamine is neutral and non-toxic, and easy to penetrate through the cell membrane and is the main form of ammonia transportation. 3. In the glucose-alanine cycle pathway, the muscle glutamate dehydrogenase catalyzed the reaction between α- ketoglutarate and ammonia to generate glutamate; glutamate, together with pyruvate, again forms α- ketoglutarate and alanine in the catalytic action of alanine aminotransferase. 4. In the metabolic pathway of active biological substance, the glutamate itself is a kind of excitatory neurotransmitter and is widespread in the brain and spinal cord. The γ-aminobutyric acid formed by decarboxylation of glutamate is an inhibitory neurotransmitter and is widespread inside the biological body. 5. In the amino acid biosynthetic pathway, glutamate is an important precursor for synthesis of glutamine, proline, and arginine as well as lysine. 6. In the ornithine cycle (urea synthesis) pathway, the mitochondrial glutamate dehydrogenase release the amino-group of glutamate to provide free ammonia for the synthesis of carbamoyl phosphate; the cytoplasmic aspartate aminotransferase transfer the amino group of glutamate to oxaloacetate; the later one can further form aspartate and enters into ornithine cycle with glutamate indirectly supplying the second amino group for the cycle. |
| Pharmacological effects | Glutamate can form harmless glutamine by combing with the blood amine, and also reducing the symptoms of hepatic coma. In addition, it can participate in the brain protein metabolism and carbohydrate metabolism and have certain effects on promoting the oxidation process as well as improving the function of the central nervous system. It can be used for the prevention and treatment of hepatic coma, recovery period of hepatic coma severe liver dysfunction. Glutamate can also be used for the adjuvant therapy for treating recovery of coma and neurological diseases caused by various kinds of reasons (schizophrenia and epilepsy). For oral administration, take 2.5 to 5 g per time and 4 times a day. |
| Identification test |
Take 150 mg of sample, add 4 ml of water and l ml of sodium hydroxide test solution (TS-224), dissolve it, add l ml indan ninhydrin test solution (TS-250), and 100mg of sodium acetate; heat at boiling water for 10 mins should generate violet color. Take 1 g of sample, add 9 mL of water to make suspension, slowly warm on a steam bath and stir until complete dissolution; add 6.8 mL of l mol/L hydrochloric acid solution, and re-suspend; further add 6.8 ml of l mol/L sodium hydroxide solution, after stirring, glutamate should be completely dissolved. |
| Content Analysis |
Method 1: accurately weigh sample of about 0.2 g, dissolve it in 3 mL of formic acid; add 50 ml of glacial acetic acid and 2 drops of crystal violet test solution (TS-74), further use 0.1mol / L perchloric acid solution to titrate to until green or blue all disappear. Apply the same method for a blank test at the same time. Each mL of 0.1 mol/L perchloric acid solution corresponds to 14.71 mg of L- glutamic acid (C5H9NO4). Method 2: accurately weigh 500 mg of sample for being dissolved in 250 mL of water; add several drops of bromothymol blue test solution (TS-56); use 0.1mol/L sodium hydroxide droplets for titrate to the end point of blue.
