Description

Hydroxypyruvic acid is an intermediate in the metabolism of Glycine, serine and threonine. It is a substrate for Serine--pyruvate aminotransferase and Glyoxylate reductase/hydroxypyruvate reductase.


Solid|white crystalline powder


3-hydroxypyruvic acid is a 2-oxo monocarboxylic acid that is pyruvic acid in which one of the methyl hydrogens is substituted by a hydroxy group. It is an intermediate involved in the glycine and serine metabolism. It has a role as a human metabolite and an Escherichia coli metabolite. It is a 2-oxo monocarboxylic acid, a 3-hydroxy monocarboxylic acid and a primary alpha-hydroxy ketone. It derives from a pyruvic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a 3-hydroxypyruvate.
