The interaction of beta-N-methylamino-L-alanine with bicarbonate: an 1H-NMR study.

P B Nunn1, P O'Brien.   

Abstract

The mode of action of the neurotoxic, non-protein amino acid beta-N-methylamino-L-alanine (L-BMAA) is unknown. We have shown, using 1H-NMR spectroscopy, that L-BMAA forms a stable adduct with bicarbonate (probably a carbamate). The properties of this adduct may explain the observation that L-BMAA and N-methyl-D-aspartic acid appear to act at the same central nervous system receptors.
