1.0 2011-04-11 17:01:42 UTC 2025-11-19 02:39:46 UTC FDB021812 Aminoadipic acid A metabolite in the principal biochemical pathway of lysine. It antagonizes neuroexcitatory activity modulated by the glutamate receptor, N-methyl-D-aspartate; (NMDA). Alpha-aminoadipate is an intermediate in the metabolism of lysine and saccharopine. [HMDB]. Aminoadipic acid is found in many foods, some of which are parsnip, red beetroot, spinach, and green bell pepper.
