Metabolite Identification
Common Namep-Hydroxyhippuric acid
Description4-Hydroxyhippuric acid, also known as 4-hydroxybenzoylglycine or 4-hydroxyhippate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as hippuric acids. Hippuric acids are compounds containing hippuric acid, which consists of a of a benzoyl group linked to the N-terminal of a glycine. 4-Hydroxyhippuric acid is a secondary metabolite. Secondary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically non-essential metabolites that may serve a role as defense or signalling molecules. In some cases they are simply molecules that arise from the incomplete metabolism of other secondary metabolites. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 4-Hydroxyhippuric acid.
