## Abstract The production of L‐glutamic acid‐^15^N in good yield by direct enzymic synthesis from 2‐oxoglutaric acid, ammonium chloride‐^15^N (95 atom % ^15^N) and reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) is described. The NADPH is continuously regenerated by coupling the first

Aspartic acid is one of the metabolically "active" amino acids in living cells, contributing to the biosynthesis of other amino acids and nitrogen containing compounds such as pyrimidine and purine bases or nucleotides ((l-3) and references therein). In view of the importance of the stable isotope 1
The activity of L-glutamic acid decarboxylase (GAD) is commonly estimated by several radiometric methods, whereas a fluorimetric assay based on an enzymatic formation of NADPH as described by Y. Okada and C. Shimada [(1975) Brain Res. 98, 202-206] has been given little attention in biochemical and p
