Description

6-Oxopiperidine-2-carboxylic acid is a hexadecanoic acid that is produced by the metabolic conversion of 6-oxo-piperidine-2-carboxylic acid. It is an important intermediate in the biosynthesis of fatty acids, which are monocarboxylic acids. The production of this compound occurs in two steps: first, synthesis of pyridine carboxylic acids; second, oxidation to form the desired product. This process can be achieved through a chromatographic method that uses cavity constant control analysis for quality assurance. The natural source for this molecule has not been determined, but it may be found in strains of bacteria or fungi as well as plants and animals.
6-Oxo-piperidine-2-carboxylic acid is usually found extracellularly and has a model system in Escherichia coli with extracellular uptake.
