Definition
ChEBI: The L-enantiomer of 2-aminoadipic acid.
General Description
L-2-Aminoadipic acid/α-aminoadipate is a gliotoxin and is a structural analog of glutamine. It is generated by the catabolism of lysine saccharopine (SAC)/pipecolic acid (PIP) pathways.
Biochem/physiol Actions
L-2-Aminoadipic acid inhibits glutamine synthetase and γ-glutamylcysteine synthetase. It modulates glucose metabolism and is present in higher levels in diabetic patients. L-2-Aminoadipic acid plays a key role in suppressing autophagy in C2C12 myotubes.
