Serine, glycine, and threonine

De Koning, T. J. LU ; Fuchs, S. A. and Klomp, L. W.J. (2007) p.23-45
Abstract

Amino acids are not only indispensable for protein synthesis but also play important cellular functions. In this chapter, the central nervous system (CNS) functions of serine, glycine, and threonine are discussed. Both the specific functions of the aforementioned amino acids and the functions of their derivatives are reviewed in relation to brain development and neurotransmission. In particular, for serine and glycine exciting new functions were unravelled recently.
