Metabolite Identification
Common Name2-Hydroxy-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propenoic acid
Description2-Hydroxy-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propenoic acid, also known as 4,alpha-dihydroxycinnamic acid or 4-hydroxy-enol-phenylpyruvate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenylpyruvic acid derivatives. Phenylpyruvic acid derivatives are compounds containing a phenylpyruvic acid moiety, which consists of a phenyl group substituted at the second position by an pyruvic acid. 2-Hydroxy-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propenoic acid exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on 2-Hydroxy-3-(4-hydroxyphenyl)propenoic acid.

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in cytokine activity
Specific function:
Pro-inflammatory cytokine. Involved in the innate immune response to bacterial pathogens. The expression of MIF at sites of inflammation suggests a role as mediator in regulating the function of macrophages in host defense. Counteracts the anti-inflammatory activity of glucocorticoids. Has phenylpyruvate tautomerase and dopachrome tautomerase activity (in vitro), but the physiological substrate is not known. It is not clear whether the tautomerase activity has any physiological relevance, and whether it is important for cytokine activity (By similarity).
