Metabolite Identification
Common Name(2R,3S)-Piscidic acid
Description(2R,3S)-Piscidic acid, also known as (2R,3S)-piscidate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenylpropanoic acids. Phenylpropanoic acids are compounds with a structure containing a benzene ring conjugated to a propanoic acid (2R,3S)-Piscidic acid is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Outside of the human body, (2R,3S)-Piscidic acid has been detected, but not quantified in, fruits and green vegetables. This could make (2R,3S)-piscidic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods.

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in sulfotransferase activity
Specific function:
Sulfotransferase that utilizes 3'-phospho-5'-adenylyl sulfate (PAPS) as sulfonate donor to catalyze the sulfate conjugation of many hormones, neurotransmitters, drugs and xenobiotic compounds. Sulfonation increases the water solubility of most compounds, and therefore their renal excretion, but it can also result in bioactivation to form active metabolites. Sulfates hydroxysteroids like DHEA. Isoform 1 preferentially sulfonates cholesterol, and isoform 2 avidly sulfonates pregnenolone but not cholesterol.

(2R,3S)-Piscidic acid → 2-hydroxy-2-[(4-hydroxyphenyl)methyl]-3-(sulfooxy)butanedioic aciddetails
General function:
Involved in transferase activity, transferring hexosyl groups
Specific function:
UDPGT is of major importance in the conjugation and subsequent elimination of potentially toxic xenobiotics and endogenous compounds. This isoform glucuronidates bilirubin IX-alpha to form both the IX-alpha-C8 and IX-alpha-C12 monoconjugates and diconjugate. Is also able to catalyze the glucuronidation of 17beta-estradiol, 17alpha-ethinylestradiol, 1-hydroxypyrene, 4-methylumbelliferone, 1-naphthol, paranitrophenol, scopoletin, and umbelliferone.
