Application

3-Hydroxyisobutyrate (HIBA) may be used to study the distribution, characterization and kinetics of enzymes involved in branched chain amino acid metabolism such as 3-hydroxyisobutyrate dehydrogenase (EC: 1.1.1.31) and 3-hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA hydrolase (EC: 3.1.2.4). (S)-β-hydroxyisobutyrate may be used in stereospecific studies.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Metabolite in valine, leucine and isoleucine degradation, a reactant of enzymes 3-hydroxyisobutyrate dehydrogenase (EC: 1.1.1.31), 3-hydroxyacyl-CoA dehydrogenase (EC: 1.1.1.35) and 3-hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA hydrolase (EC: 3.1.2.4). Enantiomeric ratio can be used in diagnosis of metabolic diseases, e.g. 3-hydroxyisobutyric aciduria.

Only a single patient with 3-hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA hydrolase deficiency has been described in the literature, and the molecular basis of this inborn error of valine catabolism has remained unknown until now. Here, we present a second patient with 3-hydroxyisobutyryl-CoA hydrolase deficiency

The branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs)--isoleucine, leucine, and valine--belong to the limited group of substances transported through the blood-brain barrier. One of the functions they are thought to have in brain is to serve as substrates for meeting parenchymal energy demands.

The chiral metabolites 3-hydroxyisobutyric acid (HIBA) and 3-aminoisobutyric acid (AIBA) are intermediates in the pathways of L-valine and thymine and play an important role in the diagnosis of the very rare inherited metabolic diseases 3-hydroxyisobutyric aciduria (McKusick 236975) and methylmalonic
