Cannabis Compound Identification
Common NamePhenylisopropionic acid
Description2-Phenylpropionic acid, also known as (+/-)-hydratropic acid, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenylpropanoic acids. Phenylpropanoic acids are compounds with a structure containing a benzene ring conjugated to a propanoic acid. A characteristic reaction of phenylpropanoic acid is its cyclization to 1-indanone. 2-Phenylpropionate is a weakly acidic compound (based on its pKa). Shelved foods are protected from microorganism by adding phenylpropanoic acid to prevent deterioration to the food by microorganisms as well as acting as an antioxidant to prolong shelf life. When the side chain is homologated by the Arndt-Eistert reaction, subsequent cyclization affords 2-tetralone derivatives. 2-Phenylpropionate is formed during the combustion of cannabis and is therefore a constituent of cannabis smoke ( Ref:DOI ). Phenylpropanoic acid has a wide variety of uses including cosmetics, food additives, and pharmaceuticals. This compound is used frequently in cosmetic products such as perfumes, bath gels, detergent powders, liquid detergents, fabric softeners, and soaps as it gives off a floral scent. Phenylpropanoic acid is used in the food industry to preserve and maintain the original aroma quality of frozen foods. It is a white, crystalline solid with a sweet, floral scent at room temperature. 2-Phenylpropionate is an intermediate in alpha-Methylstyrene (2-phenylpropylene) metabolism. It was identified in human liver slices in small amounts. It is. likely that 2-Phenylpropionate derives from 2-phenylpropionaldehyde, formed from a 1,2-hydride shift during the transfer of active oxygen to the vinyl group, as has been proposed for the cytochrome P450-mediated oxidation of styrene to form phenylacetaldehyde (PMID: 11159807 ). 2-Phenylpropionate has been found to be a metabolite of Acinetobacter, Bacteroides, Bifidobacterium, Clostridium, Enterococcus, Escherichia, Eubacterium, Klebsiella, Lactobacillus, Pseudomonas and Staphylococcus (PMID: 19961416 ).

Enzymes

General function:
Involved in transferase activity, transferring hexosyl groups
Specific function:
UDPGT is of major importance in the conjugation and subsequent elimination of potentially toxic xenobiotics and endogenous compounds. This isoform glucuronidates bilirubin IX-alpha to form both the IX-alpha-C8 and IX-alpha-C12 monoconjugates and diconjugate. Is also able to catalyze the glucuronidation of 17beta-estradiol, 17alpha-ethinylestradiol, 1-hydroxypyrene, 4-methylumbelliferone, 1-naphthol, paranitrophenol, scopoletin, and umbelliferone.
