1 N-acetylated-a-linked acidic dipeptidase (NAALADase, EC 3.4.17.21) is responsible for the hydrolysis of NAAG into N-acetylaspartate (NAA) and glutamate. isospaglumic acid folate hydrolase 1 Homo sapiens
2 N-acetylated-a-linked acidic dipeptidase (NAALADase, EC 3.4.17.21) is responsible for the hydrolysis of NAAG into N-acetylaspartate (NAA) and glutamate. isospaglumic acid folate hydrolase 1 Homo sapiens
3 N-acetylated-a-linked acidic dipeptidase (NAALADase, EC 3.4.17.21) is responsible for the hydrolysis of NAAG into N-acetylaspartate (NAA) and glutamate. N-acetylaspartate folate hydrolase 1 Homo sapiens

5 N-acetylated-a-linked acidic dipeptidase (NAALADase, EC 3.4.17.21) is responsible for the hydrolysis of NAAG into N-acetylaspartate (NAA) and glutamate. N-acetylaspartate folate hydrolase 1 Homo sapiens
6 N-acetylated-a-linked acidic dipeptidase (NAALADase, EC 3.4.17.21) is responsible for the hydrolysis of NAAG into N-acetylaspartate (NAA) and glutamate. Glutamic Acid folate hydrolase 1 Homo sapiens
7 N-acetylated-a-linked acidic dipeptidase (NAALADase, EC 3.4.17.21) is responsible for the hydrolysis of NAAG into N-acetylaspartate (NAA) and glutamate. Glutamic Acid folate hydrolase 1 Homo sapiens
8 If NAAG is a storage form of glutamate, then inhibition of NAALADase should be neuroprotective in diseases in which excess glutamatergic transmission is detrimental. isospaglumic acid folate hydrolase 1 Homo sapiens
9 If NAAG is a storage form of glutamate, then inhibition of NAALADase should be neuroprotective in diseases in which excess glutamatergic transmission is detrimental. Glutamic Acid folate hydrolase 1 Homo sapiens
10 Therefore, inhibition of NAALADase would also function to increase NAAG levels which, in turn, should provide neuroprotection via the interaction of NAAG with these receptors. isospaglumic acid folate hydrolase 1 Homo sapiens
11 Therefore, inhibition of NAALADase would also function to increase NAAG levels which, in turn, should provide neuroprotection via the interaction of NAAG with these receptors. isospaglumic acid folate hydrolase 1 Homo sapiens
12 As such, NAALADase inhibition represents a novel method of regulating extracellular glutamate levels and provides a new avenue for the treatment of neurological disorders. Glutamic Acid folate hydrolase 1 Homo sapiens
