Metabolite Identification
Common NameMethylisocitric acid
DescriptionMethylisocitric acid, also known as alpha-methylisocitrate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as tricarboxylic acids and derivatives. These are carboxylic acids containing exactly three carboxyl groups. Methylisocitric acid exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to plants to humans. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on Methylisocitric acid.
