Common NameL-Glutamic γ-semialdehyde
DescriptionL-Glutamic gamma-semialdehyde, also known as L-glutamate 5-semialdehyde or 5-oxo-L-norvaline, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as l-alpha-amino acids. These are alpha amino acids which have the L-configuration of the alpha-carbon atom. L-Glutamic gamma-semialdehyde is a very strong basic compound (based on its pKa). L-Glutamic gamma-semialdehyde exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. A glutamic semialdehyde arising from formal reduction of the side-chain carboxy group of L-glutamic acid. Outside of the human body, L-Glutamic gamma-semialdehyde has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as oil palms, pak choy, oregon yampahs, chicory leaves, and broad beans. This could make L-glutamic gamma-semialdehyde a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. L-Glutamic γ-semialdehyde is expected to be in Cannabis as all living plants are known to produce and metabolize it.
