Identification
Common Name5-Hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde
ClassSmall Molecule
Description5-5-5-hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde, also known as 5-5-hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as hydroxyindoles. These are organic compounds containing an indole moiety that carries a hydroxyl group. 5-5-5-hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde is possibly soluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 5-5-5-hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde participates in a number of enzymatic reactions, within cattle. In particular, 5-5-5-hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde can be biosynthesized from serotonin through the action of the enzyme kynurenine 3-monooxygenase. In addition, 5-5-5-hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde can be converted into 5-hydroxyindoleacetic acid; which is catalyzed by the enzyme aldehyde dehydrogenase, mitochondrial. In cattle, 5-5-hydroxyindoleacetaldehyde is involved in the metabolic pathway called the tryptophan metabolism pathway.
