α-Ketoglutaric acid-d6, α-Ketopentanoic acid-d6 Chemical Properties,Usage,Production

Uses

2-Ketoglutaric acid-d6 is the deuterium labeled 2-Ketoglutaric acid[1]. 2-Ketoglutaric acid (Alpha-Ketoglutaric acid) is an intermediate in the production of ATP or GTP in the Krebs cycle. 2-Ketoglutaric acid also acts as the major carbon skeleton for nitrogen-assimilatory reactions. 2-Ketoglutaric acid is a reversible inhibitor of tyrosinase (IC50=15 mM)[2].
