Metabolite Identification
Common Name3-Methyl-2-butenal
Description3-Methyl-2-butenal, also known as senecialdehyde or 3,3-dimethylacrolein, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as enals. These are alpha,beta-unsaturated aldehydes of the general formula RC=C-CH=O in which the aldehydic C=O function is conjugated to a C=C triple bond at the alpha,beta position. 3-methyl-2-butenal has been detected, but not quantified, in several different foods, such as common oregano, beechnuts, oval-leaf huckleberries, tea leaf willows, and red rice. This could make 3-methyl-2-butenal a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. 3-Methyl-2-butenal is a derivative of acrolein that is an alpha, beta-unsaturated carbonyl metabolite. It can be formed endogenously during lipid peroxidation or after oxidative stress, and is considered to play an important role in human carcinogenesis. The endogenously formed acroleins are a constant source of DNA damage, can lead to mutation, and can also induce tumours in humans (PMID:8319634 ). 3-Methyl-2-butenal, which is an unsaturated aldehyde bearing substitution at the alkene terminus, is a poor inactivator of the enzymes protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs). The inactivation of PTPs can yield profound biological consequences arising from the disruption of cellular signalling pathways (PMID:17655273 ).

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in oxidoreductase activity
Specific function:
NADPH-dependent reductase with broad substrate specificity. Catalyzes the reduction of a wide variety of carbonyl compounds including quinones, prostaglandins, menadione, plus various xenobiotics. Catalyzes the reduction of the antitumor anthracyclines doxorubicin and daunorubicin to the cardiotoxic compounds doxorubicinol and daunorubicinol. Can convert prostaglandin E2 to prostaglandin F2-alpha. Can bind glutathione, which explains its higher affinity for glutathione-conjugated substrates. Catalyzes the reduction of S-nitrosoglutathione.
