Applications N-Pentanoylglycine is an acyl derivative of Glycine (G615990). The presence of N-Pentanoylglycine (among other metabolites) in urine is used in medicine to diagnose inborn errors of metabolism (such as mitochondrial fatty acid β-oxidation defects) through the use of liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry.
