Aspartic acid

Hi fellow wiki editors, I’m a 3rd year Physiological sciences major at UCLA and I’m going to be editing and adding to this page. I’m new to Wiki editing so if I make a mistake or you as fellow editors see an area that needs additional information and/ or correction, feel free to let me know!

Asparte outline

Introduction:

·     Edit and clean up information

·     Make the introduction flow better and present background in a clear and concise way

·     Diferentiate between aspartate and aspartic acid

o  Which form is used in the body

o  Its biological relevance

·     Mention that our bodies use the D-aspartate confirmation

Discovery:

·     Elaborate and verify current posted information

o  How it was discovered

o  What experiments were used in its discovery

Structure:

·     Create or locate a useable image demonstrating proper stereochemistry

Metabolism:

·     Identify other sources of production

·     Fact check currently listed sources

·     Write out proper equation (current one does not even include a yield sign)

Other biochemical roles:

·     Fact check current information (lacks citations)

·     Expand section

·     Elaborate

·     Write equations of reactions its involved in

Neurotransmitter:

·     Elaborate and expand

·     Possibly combine this section with another appropriate section

Application and market:

·     D-aspartic acid is currently sold by supplement companies as a “testosterone booster” so I’d like to mention that after further research

*Overall after looking at the talk page I would like to delve deeper into the chemistry and biochemistry of Aspartic acid
