Common Name5-Methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamic acid
Description5-Methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamic acid, also known as 5-methyl-5,6,7,8-tetrahydropteroyl tri-γ-L-glutamate or 5-methyltetrahydrofolate triglutamate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as tetrahydrofolic acids and derivatives. These are heterocyclic compounds based on the 5,6,7,8-tetrahydropteroic acid skeleton conjugated with at least one L-glutamic acid unit (or a derivative thereof) . It is also involved in several pathways as a product of enzymatic oxidation such as in the pathways folate polyglutamylation I and carbon tetrachloride degradation II. 5-Methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamic acid (CAS: 13061-55-7) is formed during the reaction between the carbonyl group of 5-methyltetrahydropteroate and the amine group on one end of three replicates of glutamate. 5-Methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamic acid is a strong basic compound (based on its pKa). In humans, this compound is produced by the bacteria in the gut and may be found in feces or urine. 5-Methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamic acid exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Outside of the human body, 5-Methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamic acid has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as chives, flaxseeds, sweet marjorams, butternut squash, and mandarin orange (clementine, tangerine). This could make 5-methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. It is involved in several pathways as a product of enzymatic reduction such as in tetrahydrofolate biosynthesis II and methionine biosynthesis I, II, and III. 5-Methyltetrahydropteroyltri-L-glutamic acid is expected to be in Cannabis as all living plants are known to produce and metabolize it.
