Metabolite Identification
Common NameAllysine
DescriptionAllysine, also known as 6-oxonorleucine or alpha-aasa, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alpha amino acids. These are amino acids in which the amino group is attached to the carbon atom immediately adjacent to the carboxylate group (alpha carbon). Allysine is possibly soluble (in water) and a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). Allysine exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans. Allysine participates in a number of enzymatic reactions, within cattle. In particular, Allysine and L-glutamic acid can be biosynthesized from saccharopine through the action of the enzyme Alpha-aminoadipic semialdehyde synthase, mitochondrial. In addition, Allysine can be converted into aminoadipic acid; which is catalyzed by the enzyme Alpha-aminoadipic semialdehyde dehydrogenase. In cattle, allysine is involved in the metabolic pathway called the lysine degradation pathway. Allysine is a potentially toxic compound.
