General Information
Biological Significance
The amino acid glycine is a major inhibitory neurotransmitter in the spinal cord, brainstem, and retina, where it exerts its effects on the strychnine-sensitive glycine receptors. In addition, glycine acts as a coagonist with glutamate at the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) receptors.
