Metabolite Identification
Common Name5-Carboxymethyl-2-hydroxymuconate semialdehyde
Description5-Carboxymethyl-2-hydroxymuconate semialdehyde is a chemical compound belonging to the class of semialdehydes, characterized by its unique structure that includes a carboxymethyl group and a hydroxymuconate moiety. This metabolite plays a role in the degradation pathways of aromatic compounds, particularly in the bacterial metabolism of phenolic compounds. Specifically, it is formed through the action of the enzyme PaDHPAO, which catalyzes the 2,3-extradiol ring-cleavage of dihydroxyphenylpropionic acid (DHPA) to yield 5-carboxymethyl-2-hydroxymuconate semialdehyde, exhibiting a molar absorptivity of 32.23 mM-1cm-1 at 380 nm and pH 7.5 (PMID:28158217 ). Furthermore, the kinetic properties of the enzyme 5-carboxymethyl-2-hydroxymuconate semialdehyde dehydrogenase from Escherichia coli have been investigated, highlighting its role in the 4-hydroxyphenylacetate meta-cleavage pathway (PMID:3089331 ). These studies underscore the importance of 5-carboxymethyl-2-hydroxymuconate semialdehyde in microbial metabolic processes, particularly in the breakdown of complex aromatic compounds.
