Metabolite Identification
Common Name2-Aminomuconic acid semialdehyde
Description2-Aminomuconic acid semialdehyde belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alpha amino acids. These are amino acids in which the amino group is attached to the carbon atom immediately adjacent to the carboxylate group (alpha carbon). 2-Aminomuconic acid semialdehyde is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. A muconic semialdehyde having a 2-amino substituent. 2-Aminomuconic acid semialdehyde exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Within humans, 2-aminomuconic acid semialdehyde participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, 2-aminomuconic acid semialdehyde can be biosynthesized from 2-amino-3-carboxymuconic acid semialdehyde through its interaction with the enzyme 2-amino-3-carboxymuconate-6-semialdehyde decarboxylase. In addition, 2-aminomuconic acid semialdehyde can be converted into 2-aminomuconic acid through the action of the enzyme 2-aminomuconate-semialdehyde dehydrogenase. In humans, 2-aminomuconic acid semialdehyde is involved in the metabolic disorder called 2-amino-3-carboxymuconate semialdehyde degradation.

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in catalytic activity
Specific function:
Converts alpha-amino-beta-carboxymuconate-epsilon-semialdehyde (ACMS) to alpha-aminomuconate semialdehyde (AMS). ACMS can be converted non-enzymatically to quinolate (QA), a key precursor of NAD, and a potent endogenous excitotoxin of neuronal cells which is implicated in the pathogenesis of various neurodegenerative disorders. In the presence of ACMSD, ACMS is converted to AMS, a benign catabolite. ACMSD ultimately controls the metabolic fate of tryptophan catabolism along the kynurenine pathway.
