Metabolite Identification
Common Name5-Hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde
Description5-5-5-hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde, also known as 5-5-hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as hydroxyindoles. These are organic compounds containing an indole moiety that carries a hydroxyl group. 5-5-5-hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde is possibly soluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 5-5-5-hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde participates in a number of enzymatic reactions, within cattle. In particular, 5-5-5-hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde can be biosynthesized from serotonin through the action of the enzyme kynurenine 3-monooxygenase. In addition, 5-5-5-hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde can be converted into 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid; which is catalyzed by the enzyme aldehyde dehydrogenase, mitochondrial. In cattle, 5-5-hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde is involved in the metabolic pathway called the tryptophan metabolism pathway.

Enzymes

General function:
Nucleotide transport and metabolism
Specific function:
Oxidase with broad substrate specificity, oxidizing aromatic azaheterocycles, such as N1-methylnicotinamide, N-methylphthalazinium and phthalazine, as well as aldehydes, such as benzaldehyde, retinal, pyridoxal, and vanillin. Plays a key role in the metabolism of xenobiotics and drugs containing aromatic azaheterocyclic substituents. Is probably involved in the regulation of reactive oxygen species homeostasis. May be a prominent source of superoxide generation via the one-electron reduction of molecular oxygen. Also may catalyze nitric oxide (NO) production via the reduction of nitrite to NO with NADH or aldehyde as electron donor. May play a role in adipogenesis.
