Roles Classification
Chemical Roles:
Bronsted base  A molecular entity capable of accepting a hydron from a donor (Brønsted acid).
Bronsted acid  A molecular entity capable of donating a hydron to an acceptor (Brønsted base).
Biological Roles:
plant metabolite  Any eukaryotic metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in plants, the kingdom that include flowering plants, conifers and other gymnosperms.
GABA reuptake inhibitor  A compound that inhibits the re-uptake of the neurotransmitter GABA from the synapse into the pre-synaptic neuron, so increasing the extracellular concentrations of the neurotransmitter and hence increasing neurotransmission.
metabolite  Any intermediate or product resulting from metabolism. The term 'metabolite' subsumes the classes commonly known as primary and secondary metabolites.
Application:
GABA reuptake inhibitor  A compound that inhibits the re-uptake of the neurotransmitter GABA from the synapse into the pre-synaptic neuron, so increasing the extracellular concentrations of the neurotransmitter and hence increasing neurotransmission.
