Description: Potent and selective kainate antagonist; selective for GluK1-containing receptors
Chemical Name: (RS)-1-(2-Amino-2-carboxyethyl)-3-(2-carboxybenzyl)pyrimidine-2,4-dione
Purity: ≥98% (HPLC)
Biological Activity for UBP 296
UBP 296 is a selective GluK1 (formally GluR5) subunit containing kainate receptor antagonist (apparent KD = 1.09 μM). Displays ~ 90-fold selectivity over AMPA receptors and recombinant hGluK2 (formally hGluR6) and GluK5 (formally KA2) containing kainate receptors. Has little or no action at NMDA or group I mGlu receptors. Selectively blocks kainate receptor-mediated LTP induction in rat hippocampal mossy fibers.
Active Enantiomer also available.
Please refer to IUPHAR Guide to Pharmacology for the most recent naming conventions.
