Metabolite Identification
Common Name5-Hydroxykynurenine
Description5-Hydroxykynurenine belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkyl-phenylketones. These are aromatic compounds containing a ketone substituted by one alkyl group, and a phenyl group. 5-Hydroxykynurenine is possibly soluble (in water) and a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). 5-Hydroxykynurenine participates in a number of enzymatic reactions, within cattle. In particular, 5-Hydroxykynurenine and formic acid can be biosynthesized from 5-hydroxy-N-formylkynurenine; which is mediated by the enzyme kynurenine formamidase. In addition, 5-Hydroxykynurenine can be converted into 5-hydroxykynurenamine; which is catalyzed by the enzyme aromatic-L-amino-acid decarboxylase. In cattle, 5-hydroxykynurenine is involved in the metabolic pathway called the tryptophan metabolism pathway.
