| Common Name | Methylimidazole acetaldehyde |
|---|
| Description | Methylimidazole acetaldehyde belongs to the class of organic compounds known as n-substituted imidazoles. These are heterocyclic compounds containing an imidazole ring substituted at position 1. Methylimidazole acetaldehyde is a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). Methylimidazole acetaldehyde exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Within humans, methylimidazole acetaldehyde participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, methylimidazole acetaldehyde can be biosynthesized from 1-methylhistamine through its interaction with the enzyme amine oxidase [flavin-containing] a. In addition, methylimidazole acetaldehyde can be converted into methylimidazoleacetic acid through the action of the enzyme aldehyde dehydrogenase, dimeric nadp-preferring. In humans, methylimidazole acetaldehyde is involved in histidine metabolism. |
