Notizen:
The identification of (E)-2-methylglutaconic acid, a ‘new’ metabolite of isoleucine, is described. The substance was detected in urine samples from patients with propionic acidaemia, methylmalonic acidaemia and so-called β-ketothiolase deficiency; in the majority of cases together with N-tiglylglycine. (E)-2-Methylglutaconic acid is thought to be the end product of the 3-methylcrotonyl-CoA carboxylase-catalysed carboxylation of tiglyl-CoA. Prerequisites for the quantitative gas chromatographic analysis of the unstable 2- (and 3-) methylglutaconic acid ditrimethylsilyl ester are given.
