Aconitate [cis or trans]

(1Z)-prop-1-ene-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid

C6H6O6 (174.0164)


cis-Aconitic acid is an intermediate in the tricarboxylic acid cycle produced by the dehydration of citric acid. The enzyme aconitase (aconitate hydratase; EC 4.2.1.3) catalyses the stereo-specific isomerization of citrate to isocitrate via cis-aconitate in the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Present in apple fruits, maple syrup and passion fruit juice cis-Aconitic acid, also known as (Z)-aconitic acid, plays several important biological roles: Intermediate in the Citric Acid Cycle: cis-Aconitic acid is an intermediate in the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, also known as the Krebs cycle or citric acid cycle. It is formed from citrate by the enzyme aconitase and is rapidly converted into isocitrate, another key intermediate in the cycle. The TCA cycle is central to cellular respiration, generating energy-rich molecules like NADH and FADH2. Regulation of Aconitase Activity: The conversion of citrate to cis-aconitate and then to isocitrate by aconitase is an important regulatory step in the TCA cycle. This conversion helps in maintaining the balance of the cycle and is influenced by factors like the energy status of the cell. Role in Cholesterol Synthesis: cis-Aconitic acid is also involved in the synthesis of cholesterol. It serves as a precursor for the synthesis of mevalonate, a key intermediate in the cholesterol biosynthesis pathway. Potential Involvement in Disease: Altered metabolism or accumulation of cis-aconitic acid has been associated with certain diseases, including neurodegenerative disorders and cancer. Its role in these conditions is an area of ongoing research. Plant Growth and Development: In plants, cis-aconitic acid has been found to play a role in growth and development, including seed germination and leaf senescence. In summary, cis-aconitic acid is a crucial intermediate in the TCA cycle, impacting energy production and various metabolic pathways in cells. Its role extends to cholesterol synthesis and potentially to various disease processes, highlighting its importance in cellular metabolism and physiology. cis-Aconitic acid. CAS Common Chemistry.

1-Methylnicotinamide

N(1)-Methylnicotinamide iodide, 3-(aminocarbonyl-13C)-labeled

[C7H9N2O]+ (137.0715)


1-Methylnicotinamide is a metabolite of nicotinamide and is produced primarily in the liver. It has anti-inflammatory properties (PMID 16197374). It is a product of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase [EC 2.1.1.1] in the pathway of nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism (KEGG). 1-Methylnicotinamide may be an endogenous activator of prostacyclin production and thus may regulate thrombotic as well as inflammatory processes in the cardiovascular system (PMID: 17641676).

Ubiquinone 6

2-[(2E,6E,10E,14E,18E)-3,7,11,15,19,23-hexamethyltetracosa-2,6,10,14,18,22-hexaen-1-yl]-5,6-dimethoxy-3-methylcyclohexa-2,5-diene-1,4-dione

C39H58O4 (590.4335)


Ubiquinone-6 is a member of the chemical class known as Polyprenylbenzoquinones. These are compounds containing a polyisoprene chain attached to a quinone at the second ring position. Ubiquione-6 has just 6 isoprene units. Normally in humans it has 10. Ubiquinone-6 is an intermediate in the synthesis of Ubiquionone 10. It is an endogenouse compound but it has also been isolated from foods containing bakers yeast. Ubiquionone 10 (CoQ10) is involved in cellular respiration. It is fat-soluble and is therefore mobile in cellular membranes; it plays a unique role in the electron transport chain (ETC). In the inner bacterial membrane, electrons from NADH and succinate pass through the ETC to the oxygen, which is then reduced to water. The transfer of electrons through ETC results in the pumping of H+ across the membrane creating a proton gradient across the membrane, which is used by ATP synthase (located on the membrane) to generate ATP. Isolated from bakers yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae)
