Chemistry:Glutamate-5-semialdehyde
From HandWiki
Glutamate-5-semialdehyde is a non-proteinogenic amino acid involved in both the biosynthesis and degradation of proline and arginine (via ornithine),[1][2] as well as in the biosynthesis of antibiotics, such as carbapenems. It is synthesized by the reduction of glutamyl-5-phosphate by glutamate-5-semialdehyde dehydrogenase. In solution in water, the aldehyde is in chemical equilibrium with (S)-1-pyrroline-5-carboxylic acid and this is the form in which many of its biochemical reactions occur.[3]

Reduction of glutamic acid semialdehyde with sodium borohydride gives hydroxyaminovaleric acid.[4]
