A ball-and-stick structural diagram of L-glutamate (Glu), a small organic molecule showing a five-carbon backbone with an alpha-amino group and two terminal carboxylate groups. In biochemistry and neurophysiology, this amino acid functions both as a proteinogenic residue and as the principal excitatory neurotransmitter in the central nervous system (CNS), acting at ionotropic and metabotropic glutamate receptors. The illustration depicts the molecular level in the hierarchy of biological organization.
