| Common Name | Isovalerylalanine |
|---|
| Description | Isovalerylalanine, also known as isopentanoylalanine, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as N-acyl-L-alpha-amino acids. These are N-acylated alpha amino acids which have the L-configuration of the alpha-carbon atom. Isovalerylalanine results from the formal condensation of the carboxy group of isovaleric acid with the amino group of L-alanine. Isovalerylalanine is one of the constituents of the organic acid profile in isovaleric acidemia, it is believed to be formed by the action of the enzyme glycine N-acylase on alanine, using isovaleryl-CoA as a substrate (PMID: 6197208 ). Isovaleric acidemia was the first organic acid acidemia to be documented in humans. It is an autosomal recessive inborn error in the metabolism of leucine, caused by a deficiency of the mitochondrial enzyme isovaleryl-CoA dehydrogenase (IVD) that results in the accumulation isovaleryl-CoA derivatives (PMID: 16602101). The excess of isovaleryl-CoA in plasma allows for the formation of condensation derivatives, such as isovalerylalanine which makes it one of the biomarkers for this condition. |
