Metabolite Identification
Common NameScopoletin
DescriptionScopoletin, also known as 6-methylesculetin, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as 7-hydroxycoumarins. These are coumarins that contain one or more hydroxyl groups attached to the C7 position the coumarin skeleton. Scopoletin exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Scopoletin is found, on average, in the highest concentration within a few different foods, such as anises (Pimpinella anisum), andean blackberries (Rubus glaucus), and blackberries (Rubus) and in a lower concentration in tropical highland blackberries (Rubus adenotrichos), oats (Avena sativa), and sherry. Scopoletin has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as grass peas (Lathyrus sativus), lantern fruits (Physalis alkekengi), pita bread, sweet cherries (Prunus avium), and pepper (capsicum). This could make scopoletin a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Scopoletin is a secondary metabolite. Secondary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically non-essential metabolites that may serve a role as defense or signalling molecules. In some cases they are simply molecules that arise from the incomplete metabolism of other secondary metabolites. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on Scopoletin.

Enzymes

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.
