Metabolite Identification
Common NameMethylamine
DescriptionMethylamine, also known as aminomethane or methanamine, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as monoalkylamines. These are organic compounds containing an primary aliphatic amine group. Methylamine exists as a solid, possibly soluble (in water), and a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa) molecule. Methylamine exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. 3,4-Dihydroxymandelaldehyde and methylamine can be biosynthesized from epinephrine through its interaction with the enzyme amine oxidase [flavin-containing] a. In cattle, methylamine is involved in the metabolic pathway called the tyrosine metabolism pathway. Methylamine is a potentially toxic compound.
