Metabolite Identification
Common NameVanilpyruvic acid
DescriptionVanilpyruvic acid, also known as vanilpyruvate or HMPPA, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenylpyruvic acid derivatives. Phenylpyruvic acid derivatives are compounds containing a phenylpyruvic acid moiety, which consists of a phenyl group substituted at the second position by an pyruvic acid. Vanilpyruvic acid has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as anatidaes (Anatidae), chickens (Gallus gallus), and domestic pigs (Sus scrofa domestica). This could make vanilpyruvic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Vanilpyruvic acid, with regard to humans, has been linked to the inborn metabolic disorder aromatic l-amino acid decarboxylase deficiency. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on Vanilpyruvic acid.

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in transferase activity, transferring hexosyl groups
Specific function:
UDPGT is of major importance in the conjugation and subsequent elimination of potentially toxic xenobiotics and endogenous compounds. This isoform glucuronidates bilirubin IX-alpha to form both the IX-alpha-C8 and IX-alpha-C12 monoconjugates and diconjugate. Is also able to catalyze the glucuronidation of 17beta-estradiol, 17alpha-ethinylestradiol, 1-hydroxypyrene, 4-methylumbelliferone, 1-naphthol, paranitrophenol, scopoletin, and umbelliferone.
