Metabolite Identification
Common Name(R)-3-Hydroxybutyric acid
Description(R)-3-Hydroxybutyric acid, also known as (R)-3-hydroxybutanoate or 3-D-hydroxybutyrate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as beta hydroxy acids and derivatives. Beta hydroxy acids and derivatives are compounds containing a carboxylic acid substituted with a hydroxyl group on the C3 carbon atom (R)-3-Hydroxybutyric acid exists as a solid, very hydrophobic, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral molecule (R)-3-Hydroxybutyric acid exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans (R)-3-Hydroxybutyric acid can be converted into acetoacetic acid; which is catalyzed by the enzyme (r)-3-hydroxybutyric acid dehydrogenase, mitochondrial. In cattle, (R)-3-hydroxybutyric acid is involved in the metabolic pathway called the ketone body metabolism pathway.

Enzyme Details
1. 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase type 2
General function:
Lipid transport and metabolism
Specific function:
Dehydrogenase that mediates the formation of 2,5-dihydroxybenzoic acid (2,5-DHBA), a siderophore that shares structural similarities with bacterial enterobactin and associates with LCN2, thereby playing a key role in iron assimilation and homeostasis. Plays a role in susceptibility to bacterial infection by providing an assimilable source of iron that is exploited by pathogenic bacteria (By similarity). Also acts as a 3-hydroxybutyrate dehydrogenase (By similarity).
