General Comments
Using photoaffinity labeling, chemoproteomics and x-ray crystallography, CaMKIIα has been identified as a specific high-affinity molecular target for the natural substance γ-hydroxybutyric acid (γ-hydroxybutyrate; GHB) and related compounds [4]. GHB-like ligand interactions with CaMKIIα induce a neuroprotective effect.
