Application

3-Hydroxyisobutyrate (HIBA) may be used to study the distribution, characterization and kinetics of enzymes involved in branched chain amino acid metabolism such as 3-hydroxyisobutyrate dehydrogenase (EC: 1.1.1.31) and 3-hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA hydrolase (EC: 3.1.2.4).

Biochem/physiol Actions

3-Hydroxyisobutyrate (HIBA), is formed in the valine catabolism, it is a reactant of enzyme 3-hydroxyisobutyrate dehydrogenase (EC: 1.1.1.31) and 3-hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA hydrolase (EC: 3.1.2.4); it was found to have increased concentrations in MS patient metabolic profiles.

(1)H NMR spectroscopy of cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is currently being used to study metabolic profiles characteristic of distinct multiple sclerosis (MS) manifestations. For select MS patient groups, we have previously detected significantly increased concentrations of several identified metabolites and one

The MmsB gene product from Bacillus cereus ATCC14579 exhibits 3-hydroxypropionate dehydrogenase activity. It encodes the 32-kDa enzyme protein composed of 292 amino acids. Recombinant 3-hydroxyisobutyrate dehydrogenase (3-HIBADH) was purified 100-fold from cell extract by ammonium sulfate fractionation and column chromatography.

The branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs)--isoleucine, leucine, and valine--belong to the limited group of substances transported through the blood-brain barrier. One of the functions they are thought to have in brain is to serve as substrates for meeting parenchymal energy demands.
