Metabolite Identification
Common NameL-2-Amino-3-oxobutanoic acid
DescriptionL-2-Amino-3-oxobutanoic acid, also known as (S)-L-L-l-2-amino-3-oxobutanoic acid or L-L-l-2-amino-3-oxobutanoic acid, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as l-alpha-amino acids. These are alpha amino acids which have the L-configuration of the alpha-carbon atom. L-2-Amino-3-oxobutanoic acid is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. L-2-Amino-3-oxobutanoic acid exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. L-2-Amino-3-oxobutanoic acid can be biosynthesized from acetyl-CoA and glycine through the action of the enzyme L-L-l-2-amino-3-oxobutanoic acid coenzyme A ligase, mitochondrial. In cattle, L-L-l-2-amino-3-oxobutanoic acid is involved in the metabolic pathway called the glycine and serine metabolism pathway.
