Metabolite Identification

Common Name

2-Methylcitric acid

Description

2-Methylcitric acid, also known as 2-methylcitrate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as tricarboxylic acids and derivatives. These are carboxylic acids containing exactly three carboxyl groups. 2-Methylcitric acid is possibly soluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 2-Methylcitric acid exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. 2-Methylcitric acid is a potentially toxic compound. 2-Methylcitric acid has been found to be associated with several diseases known as iron deficiency and crohn's disease; also 2-methylcitric acid has been linked to several inborn metabolic disorders including vitamin B12 deficiency, isovaleric acidemia, and propionic acidemia.
