4,6-DIOXOHEPTANOIC ACID Chemical Properties,Usage,Production
Chemical Properties
White Solid
Uses
4,6-Dioxoheptanoic acid has been used:
- as component of dendritic cell conditioning medium and in the inhibition of ALA dehydratase (ALAD) in dendritic cells(50)
- as an inhibitor of heme biosynthesis in human mononuclear cells(51) and HeLa cells(52)
- as a standard for the quantification of succinylacetone from Plasmodium falciparum cultures(53)
Uses
Succinylacetone (SA) is a specific marker for the inherited metabolic disease, hepatorenal tyrosinemia. It was developed a stable-isotope quid urine using a 13C4-SA as internal standard.
Definition
ChEBI: A dioxo monocarboxylic acid that is heptanoic acid in which oxo groups replace the hydrogens at positions 4 and 6. It is an abnormal metabolite of the tyrosine metabolic pathway and a marker for type 1 tyrosinaemia.
Biochem/physiol Actions
4,6-Dioxoheptanoic acid is an inhibitor of heme biosynthesis. It is a catabolic byproduct of tyrosine breakdown and inhibits δ-aminolevulinic acid (ALA) dehydratase enzyme. It is a potential marker for detecting tyrosinemia type I and is measured in dried blood spot of new borns.
