| Common Name | Imidazole-4-acetaldehyde |

| Description | Imidazole-4-acetaldehyde belongs to the class of organic compounds known as imidazoles. Imidazoles are compounds containing an imidazole ring, which is an aromatic five-member ring with two nitrogen atoms at positions 1 and 3, and three carbon atoms. Imidazole-4-acetaldehyde is a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). Imidazole-4-acetaldehyde exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Within humans, imidazole-4-acetaldehyde participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, imidazole-4-acetaldehyde can be converted into imidazoleacetic acid; which is catalyzed by the enzyme aldehyde dehydrogenase, mitochondrial. In addition, imidazole-4-acetaldehyde can be biosynthesized from histamine; which is mediated by the enzyme amiloride-sensitive amine oxidase [copper-containing]. Imidazole-4-acetaldehyde could have been converted to histidine on the primitive earth by a Strecker synthesis, and several prebiotic reactions could convert imidazole-4-glycol and imidazole-4-ethanol to imidazole-4-acetaldehyde. In humans, imidazole-4-acetaldehyde is involved in histidine metabolism. Outside of the human body, Imidazole-4-acetaldehyde has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as pears, roselles, new zealand spinachs, calabash, and jew's ears. This could make imidazole-4-acetaldehyde a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. NAD-linked dehydrogenation of short chain aliphatic aldehydes has been found in virtually every organ of the mammalian body. Experimentally, the prebiotic formation of histidine has been accomplished by the reaction of erythrose with formamidine followed by a Strecker synthesis. Aldehyde dehydrogenase (EC1.2.1.3) Is the only enzyme in the human liver capable of catalyzing dehydrogenation of aldehydes arising via monoamine, diamine, and plasma amine oxidases. Imidazole-4-acetaldehyde is a good substrate for all aldehyde dehydrogenase isozymes. Imidazole-4-acetaldehyde is a naturally occurring aldehyde metabolite of histamine formed by the action of histaminase (E.C. Imidazole-4-acetaldehyde was first documented in 1987 (PMID: 2957640). 1.4.3.6), And can be synthesized by oxidation of histidine (PMID: 11536478). |
