2,3-二羟基异戊酸，2,3-二羟基-3-甲基丁酸 1756-18-9

2,3-二羟基异戊酸是支链氨基酸合成途径的一个中间代谢产物，是合成缬氨酸和异亮氨基酸代谢途径的中间代谢产物，本产品为生物合成方法生产获得。2,3-Dihydroxy-isovalerate is an intermediate in valine, leucine and isoleucine biosynthesis. The pathway of valine biosynthesis is a four-step pathway that shares all of its steps with the parallel pathway of isoleucine biosynthesis. These entwined pathways are part of the superpathway of leucine, valine, and isoleucine biosynthesis , that generates not only isoleucine and valine, but also leucine. 2,3-Dihydroxy-isovalerate is generated from 3-Hydroxy-3-methyl-2-oxobutanoic acid via the enzyme ketol-acid reductoisomerase (EC 1.1.1.86) then it is converted to 2-Oxoisovalerate via the dihydroxy-acid dehydratase (EC:4.2.1.9).
