- Pentanedioic Acid, 2-Methylene-
2-Methyleneglutaric acid is a natural coenzyme that belongs to the family of glutamic acids. It is found in all living organisms and plays an important role in many metabolic reactions. It can be synthesized by reaction with methylene glycol, but is also found as a product of other reactions involving glutamate. 2-Methyleneglutaric acid is important for the synthesis of proteins, nucleotides, and lipids. In addition, it has been shown to inhibit the activity of enzymes such as mutase and kinases that require the presence of a coenzyme for activity. The irreversible inhibition caused by 2-methyleneglutaric acid may be due to its ability to form radical species that react with the enzyme's active site. 2-Methyleneglutaric acid has been used as a model system for studying the physiological function of glutamic acids in biological systems.
