3-Methylglutaconic acid

Common Name

3-Methylglutaconic acid Description

3-Methylglutaconic acid is an intermediate (as the CoA thioester) in the leucine degradative pathway as well as the mevalonate shunt, a pathway that links isoprenoid metabolism with mitochondrial acetyl-CoA metabolism. (PMID: 7603789 ). 3-methylglutaconyl-CoA hydratase is involved in the metabolism process of 3-methylglutaconic acid. 3-Methylglutaconic acid accumliates in patients with a deficiency of this enzyme and a large amount of 3-methylglutaconic acid appear in urine.
