Metabolite Identification
Common NameFormylanthranilic acid
DescriptionFormylanthranilic acid, also known as N-formylanthranilate or 2-(formylamino)-benzoate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzoic acids. These are organic Compounds containing a benzene ring which bears at least one carboxyl group. Formylanthranilic acid is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). An amidobenzoic acid consisting of anthranilic acid carrying an N-formyl group. Formylanthranilic acid exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Within humans, formylanthranilic acid participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, formylanthranilic acid and L-alanine can be biosynthesized from n'-formylkynurenine through its interaction with the enzyme kynureninase. In addition, formylanthranilic acid can be converted into 2-aminobenzoic acid and formic acid; which is mediated by the enzyme kynurenine formamidase. In humans, formylanthranilic acid is involved in tryptophan metabolism.
