Metabolite Identification
Common Name(R)-3-Hydroxyoctanoic acid
Description(R)-3-Hydroxyoctanoic acid, also known as (R)-3-OH-caprylic acid or (3R)-3-hydroxy-octanoate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as medium-chain hydroxy acids and derivatives. These are hydroxy acids with a 6 to 12 carbon atoms long side chain (R)-3-Hydroxyoctanoic acid is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral (R)-3-Hydroxyoctanoic acid exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans (R)-3-Hydroxyoctanoic acid participates in a number of enzymatic reactions, within cattle. In particular, (R)-3-Hydroxyoctanoic acid can be biosynthesized from 3-oxooctanoic acid; which is catalyzed by the enzyme fatty acid synthase. Beta ketoacyl synthase domain. In addition, (R)-3-Hydroxyoctanoic acid can be converted into trans-2-octenoic acid through the action of the enzyme fatty acid synthase. dyhydrase domain. In cattle, (R)-3-hydroxyoctanoic acid is involved in the metabolic pathway called fatty acid biosynthesis pathway.
