Description

Aminoadipic acid is an intermediate in the metabolism of lysine and saccharopine.

2-aminoadipic acid is an alpha-amino acid that is adipic acid bearing a single amino substituent at position 2. An intermediate in the formation of lysine. It has a role as a mammalian metabolite and a Caenorhabditis elegans metabolite. It is an amino dicarboxylic acid, a non-proteinogenic alpha-amino acid and a lipid. It is a conjugate acid of a 2-aminoadipate(2-).|A metabolite in the principal biochemical pathway of lysine. It antagonizes neuroexcitatory activity modulated by the glutamate receptor, N-METHYL-D-ASPARTATE; (NMDA).
