Metabolite Identification
Common Name3,4-Dihydroxymandelaldehyde
Description3,4-Dihydroxymandelaldehyde, also known as 3,4-dihydroxymandelaldehyde or 3,4-dihydroxymandelaldehyde, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenylacetaldehydes. Phenylacetaldehydes are compounds containing a phenylacetaldehyde moiety, which consists of a phenyl group substituted at the second position by an acetalydehyde. 3,4-Dihydroxymandelaldehyde is possibly soluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 3,4-Dihydroxymandelaldehyde exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. 3,4-Dihydroxymandelaldehyde participates in a number of enzymatic reactions, within cattle. In particular, 3,4-Dihydroxymandelaldehyde can be biosynthesized from norepinephrine through the action of the enzyme amine oxidase [flavin-containing] a. In addition, 3,4-Dihydroxymandelaldehyde and methylamine can be biosynthesized from epinephrine; which is mediated by the enzyme amine oxidase [flavin-containing] a. In cattle, 3,4-dihydroxymandelaldehyde is involved in the metabolic pathway called the tyrosine metabolism pathway.

Enzyme Details
1. Amine oxidase [flavin-containing] A
General function:
Amino acid transport and metabolism
Specific function:
Catalyzes the oxidative deamination of biogenic and xenobiotic amines and has important functions in the metabolism of neuroactive and vasoactive amines in the central nervous system and peripheral tissues. MAOA preferentially oxidizes biogenic amines such as 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), norepinephrine and epinephrine.
Gene Name:
MAOA
Uniprot ID:
P21398
Molecular weight:
59758.0
Reactions
Norepinephrine + Water + Oxygen → 3,4-Dihydroxymandelaldehyde + Ammonia + Hydrogen peroxidedetails
Epinephrine + Water + Oxygen → 3,4-Dihydroxymandelaldehyde + Methylamine + Hydrogen peroxidedetails
Enzyme Details
2. Alcohol dehydrogenase class-3
General function:
Energy production and conversion
Specific function:
Catalyzes the oxidation of long-chain primary alcohols and the oxidation of S-(hydroxymethyl) glutathione. Also oxidizes long chain omega-hydroxy fatty acids, such as 20-HETE, producing both the intermediate aldehyde, 20-oxoarachidonate and the end product, a dicarboxylic acid, (5Z,8Z,11Z,14Z)-eicosatetraenedioate. Class-III ADH is remarkably ineffective in oxidizing ethanol.
