Beschreibung

2-Methyl butyric acid is a fatty acid that is produced by the fungus Monascus purpureus. 2-Methyl butyric acid has been shown to inhibit the activity of a number of enzymes in gland cells, including proteases, lipases, and amylases. This effect may be due to its ability to inhibit lipid peroxidation. Further research into the metabolic profiles of 2-methyl butyric acid has shown that it inhibits the activity of enzymes involved in fatty acid synthesis and metabolism, such as tiglic acid synthase and ketoacyl CoA reductase. It also shows some potential as a solid catalyst for kinetic studies.
