| Common Name | 4-Trimethylammoniobutanal |
|---|
| Description | 4-Trimethylammoniobutanal, also known as trimethylaminobutyraldehyde, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alpha-hydrogen aldehydes. These are aldehydes with the general formula HC(H)(R)C(=O)H, where R is an organyl group. 4-Trimethylammoniobutanal is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 4-Trimethylammoniobutanal exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Within humans, 4-trimethylammoniobutanal participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, glycine and 4-trimethylammoniobutanal can be biosynthesized from 3-hydroxy-N6,N6,N6-trimethyl-L-lysine through its interaction with the enzyme serine hydroxymethyltransferase, cytosolic. In addition, 4-trimethylammoniobutanal can be converted into 4-trimethylammoniobutanoic acid through its interaction with the enzyme 4-trimethylaminobutyraldehyde dehydrogenase. 4-Trimethylammoniobutanal is a substrate for Serine hydroxymethyltransferase (cytosolic), Serine hydroxymethyltransferase (mitochondrial), Aldehyde dehydrogenase (mitochondrial), Fatty aldehyde dehydrogenase, 4-4-Trimethylammoniobutanal dehydrogenase, Aldehyde dehydrogenase (dimeric NADP-preferring), Aldehyde dehydrogenase family 7 member A1, Aldehyde dehydrogenase 1A3 and Aldehyde dehydrogenase X (mitochondrial). In humans, 4-trimethylammoniobutanal is involved in carnitine synthesis. |
