Toxicity Profile

Route of ExposureNone
Mechanism of ToxicityAccumulation of glutaric acid in the body has been shown to be toxic. The accumulation of glutaric acid ranging from slightly or intermittently elevated urinary glutaric acid to gross organic aciduria occurs in glutaric aciduria. Glutaric aciduria type 1 is an autosomal-recessive disorder resulting from a deficiency of mitochondrial glutaryl-CoA dehydrogenase which is involved in the metabolism of lysine, hydroxylysine, and tryptophan.
MetabolismNone
Toxicity ValuesNone
Lethal DoseNone
Carcinogenicity (IARC Classification)No indication of carcinogenicity to humans (not listed by IARC).
Minimum Risk LevelNone
Health EffectsChronically high levels of glutaric acid are associated with at least 3 inborn errors of metabolism including: Glutaric Aciduria Type I and Glutaric Aciduria Type III.
TreatmentNone

Targets

General Function:
Oxidoreductase activity, acting on the ch-ch group of donors, with a flavin as acceptor
Specific Function:
Catalyzes the oxidative decarboxylation of glutaryl-CoA to crotonyl-CoA and CO(2) in the degradative pathway of L-lysine, L-hydroxylysine, and L-tryptophan metabolism. It uses electron transfer flavoprotein as its electron acceptor. Isoform Short is inactive.
Gene Name:
GCDH
Uniprot ID:
Q92947
Molecular Weight:
48126.715 Da
General Function:
Pyridoxal phosphate binding
Gene Name:
aspC
Uniprot ID:
P00509
Molecular Weight:
43572.965 Da
General Function:
Pyridoxal phosphate binding
Specific Function:
Converts glutamate to gamma-aminobutyrate (GABA), consuming one intracellular proton in the reaction. The gad system helps to maintain a near-neutral intracellular pH when cells are exposed to extremely acidic conditions. The ability to survive transit through the acidic conditions of the stomach is essential for successful colonization of the mammalian host by commensal and pathogenic bacteria.
