Application
(RS)-(Methylenecyclopropyl)acetic acid (MCPA), an inhibitor of multiple acyl-CoA dehydrogenase enzymes, is derived from hypoglycin A metabolism. MCPA forms non-metabolizable carnitine and coenzyme A (CoA) esters thereby depressing tissue levels of these cofactors and making them less available for other biochemical reactions. (RS)-(Methylenecyclopropyl)acetic acid may be used as a reference material during the analysis of MCPA.
Hypoglycin A is metabolized by means of transamination and oxidative decarboxylation to methylene cyclopropyl acetic acid (MCPA). MCPA forms nonmetabolizable carnitine and coenzyme A (CoA) esters, thereby depressing tissue levels of these cofactors and making them less available for other biochemical reactions.
