摘要

Abstract: y-Aminobutyric acid (GABA) aminotransferase is a pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) dependent enzyme that catalyzes the degradation of y-aminobutyric acid. The inactivation of GABA aminotransferase has been shown to be an important treatment for epilepsy. The mechanism of inactivation of GABA aminotransferase by y-ethynyl GABA, a mechanism- based inactivator of GABA aminotransferase that shows anticonvulsant activity in animal ...
