α-keto-β-methylvalerate

isoleucine biosynthesis Reference library
Oxford Dictionary of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (2 ed.)
...biosynthesis a pathway that commences with formation of α ‐aceto‐ α ‐hydroxybutyrate (I) from pyruvate and α ‐ketobutyrate (2‐oxobutanoate, formed by removal of ammonia from threonine by serine dehydratase). I is converted via α , β ‐dihydroxy‐ β ‐methylvalerate to α ‐keto‐ β ‐methylvalerate (II). Isoleucine is then formed from II as a result of transamination with...
