Metabolite Identification
Common NameN-Carboxyethyl-g-aminobutyric acid
DescriptionN-Carboxyethyl-g-aminobutyric acid belongs to the class of organic compounds known as gamma amino acids and derivatives. These are amino acids having a (-NH2) group attached to the gamma carbon atom. N-Carboxyethyl-g-aminobutyric acid has been detected, but not quantified in, a few different foods, such as anatidaes (Anatidae), chickens (Gallus gallus), and domestic pigs (Sus scrofa domestica). This could make N-carboxyethyl-g-aminobutyric acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on N-Carboxyethyl-g-aminobutyric acid.
