Metabolite Identification
Common NameN1-Methyl-4-pyridone-3-carboxamide
DescriptionN1-Methyl-4-pyridone-3-carboxamide, also known as N1-methyl-4-pyridone-3-carboxamide, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as nicotinamides. These are heterocyclic aromatic compounds containing a pyridine ring substituted at position 3 by a carboxamide group. N1-Methyl-4-pyridone-3-carboxamide is possibly soluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). N1-Methyl-4-pyridone-3-carboxamide can be biosynthesized from 1-methylnicotinamide through its interaction with the enzyme aldehyde oxidase. In cattle, N1-methyl-4-pyridone-3-carboxamide is involved in the metabolic pathway called the nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism pathway. N1-Methyl-4-pyridone-3-carboxamide is a potentially toxic compound.

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.
