Biochem/physiol Actions

3-Methylglutaconic acid is a metabolite (as the CoA thioester) in the leucine degradative pathway as well as the mevalonate shunt, a pathway that links isoprenoid metabolism with mitochondrial acetyl-CoA metabolism. 3-Methylglutaconic acid accumulates in patients with a deficiency of 3-methylglutaconyl-CoA hydratase.
