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.
