Metabolite Identification
Common Name(E)-2-Methylglutaconic acid
Description2-Methylglutaconic acid is found in the urine of patients with organic aciduria from 2-methylacetoacetyl-CoA thiolase (EC 2.3.1.9, acetyl-CoA C-acetyltransferase) deficiency (ACAT, OMIM 607809 ). Main clinical features of ACAT include important staturo-ponderal delay, frequent infectious rhinopharyngitis episodes and an acute metabolic acidosis (this metabolic decompensation being adequately halted by bicarbonate supplementation). (PMID: 8930414 , 2925825 ).

Chemical Taxonomy
Description Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as methyl-branched fatty acids. These are fatty acids with an acyl chain that has a methyl branch. Usually, they are saturated and contain only one or more methyl group. However, branches other than methyl may be present.
