Gamma-Aminobutyric acid (CAS No.:56-12-2), also known as GABA, has a relative molecular weight of 103.1. It is a four carbon, non protein amino acid, which widely exists in vertebrates, plants and microorganisms.Gamma-Aminobutyric acid is an important inhibitory neurotransmitter. The foods contain Gamma-Aminobutyric acid(GABA) at an amount that shows immediate effect of suppressing autonomic nerve activity related to blood pressure increase. Reacts with isothiocyanates to produce thioureas which have antifungal activity.
