Common_Name3-Methyladipic acid
Description3-Methyladipic acid is a metabolite of the catabolism of phytanic acid. Patients with Adult Refsum's Disease (ARD) are unable to detoxify phytanic acid by alpha-oxidation, and so the w-oxidation pathway is the only metabolic pathway available for phytanic acid degradation. This pathway produces 3-methyladipic acid as the final metabolite, which is excreted in the urine (Wanders et al. 2001). Activity of the w-oxidation pathway is approximately doubled in ARD patients compared with normal individuals (PMID 11948235).
