D-serine in glia and neurons derives from 3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase
Open accessAbstract
d-Serine is an endogenous ligand for NMDARs generated from l-serine by the enzyme serine racemase (Srr). Both neuronal and glial localizations have been reported for d-serine and Srr. 3-Phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase is an exclusively astrocytic enzyme that catalyzes the first committed step of l-serine biosynthesis. Using transgenic mice expressing enhanced green fluorescent protein under the Srr promoter and mice with targeted deletion of Srr or 3-Phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase, we demonstrate predominantly neuronal sources of d-serine dependent on astrocytic supply of l-serine. These findings clarify the cellular basis for the regulation of NMDAR neurotransmission by d-serine.

Astrocytes and not neurons express the phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase involved in serine biosynthesis.
“For instance, astrocytes and not neurons express the phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase involved in serine biosynthesis (Ehmsen et al., 2013), which branches off of the main glycolytic pathway.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
