Selenoamino Acid Metabolism
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0000029Metabolic3-phosphate (lysophosphatidic acid). … All phospholipids contain sn-glycerol-3-phosphate esterified with fatty acids at the sn-1 and sn-2 positions.
Arachidonic Acid Metabolism
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0000075MetabolicThis pathway describes the production and subsequent metabolism of arachidonic acid, an omega-6 fatty acid. … In resting cells arachidonic acid is present in the phospholipids (especially phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine) of membranes of the body’s cells, and is particularly abundant in the brain
Gastric Acid Production

Enzymes: Lysophosphatidic acid receptor 3Gamma-Aminobutyric Acid Biosynthesis
smpdb.ca/view/SMP0125090MetabolicGlutamate is catalyzed in the neuron with the enzyme Glutamate decarboxylase-1 to synthesize GABA and a byproduct of carbon dioxide. … GABA is transported into a synaptic vesicle by Vesicular inhibitory amino acid transporter. The vesicle is activated by calcium entering the presynapse as well as cAMP.
