ClassSmall Molecule
DescriptionAcetyl-N-formyl-5-methoxykynurenamine, also known as acetyl-n-formyl-5-methoxykynurenamine, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alkyl-phenylketones. These are aromatic compounds containing a ketone substituted by one alkyl group, and a phenyl group. Acetyl-N-formyl-5-methoxykynurenamine is possibly soluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Acetyl-N-formyl-5-methoxykynurenamine exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Acetyl-N-formyl-5-methoxykynurenamine can be biosynthesized from melatonin; which is catalyzed by the enzyme indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase 1. In cattle, acetyl-N-formyl-5-methoxykynurenamine is involved in the metabolic pathway called the tryptophan metabolism pathway.
