Beschreibung

2-Ketopimelic acid is a fatty acid that is produced by the catalysis of 2-ketoglutarate. It is found in the mitochondrial matrix and in the biosynthesis of fatty acids. The wild-type strain of E. coli has been shown to produce 2-ketopimelic acid during aerobic growth on glucose, while mutant strains did not synthesize this compound. The production of 2-ketopimelic acid requires a functional acyl carrier protein (ACP) and an active enoyl reductase (ER). The biosynthesis of 2-ketopimelic acid can be catalysed by dehydrogenase enzymes such as enoyl reductase, which are involved in the conversion of 3-oxoacyl CoA into 3-hydroxyacyl CoA.
2-Ketopimelic acid may also play a role in tuberculosis, as it has been detected in human protein using reaction monitoring techniques
