Alpha Keto Acid: As the name suggests alpha-ketoacid is the ketonic derivative of acid where the ketonic group is present at the alpha position to the acidic group. It is found in our body and used to treat diseases like kidney disorders, stomach disorders, intestinal issues, etc. Answer...
Next is the reversible change of an imine into an enamine, analogous to the reversible transformation of a ketone into an "enol," or alkene-alcohol. The conversion of the well-known ketone, acetone, well illustrates keto-enol tautomerism: CH3-C(=O)-CH3→ CH2=C(-OH)-CH3. The nitrogen ...

ALA (Alpha-linolenic Acid) ALA contains 18 carbons and is found mainly in plant oils such as flaxseed, soybean and canola oils. ALA can serve as a precursor to both DHA and EPA; however, the conversion in the liver is not very strong[*]. That means that you’ll have to consume a ...
Methylglyoxal (MG, C3H4O2, CAS registry No. 78-98-8) is also known as 2-oxopropanal, pyruvaldehyde, pyruvic aldehyde, 2-ketopropionaldehyde, acetylformaldehyde, propanedione, or propionaldehyde, which is a clear yellow slightly viscous liquid with a pungent odor which polymerizes readily and fo...

What is the molecule does the cell create from pyruvate when oxygen is not present in the cell? Is conversion of PABA to folic acid catabolic or anabolic? How can you best describe the molecule pyruvate? (a) It is a three carbon alpha-keto acid. (b) It is a molecule with a labile ...
These reactions yield keto acids or saturated fatty acids. Pyruvate is an important starting point that leads to the excretion of terminal H-acceptors (short chain fatty acids, organic acids, ethanol and gazes). The gazes generated can be metabolized by hydrogenotrophic microorganisms into methane,...
of alpha-keto-beta-methylvaleric acid. Children born with MSUD inherit a genetic mutation, which prevents their bodies from breaking down the amino acid leucine, isoleucine and valine. Leucine is one of the nine major amino acids. It is an amino acid that helps in the creation of protein ...
