Metabolite Identification
Common NameIminoaspartic acid
DescriptionIminoaspartic acid (alpha-iminosuccinate) is an intermediate in NAD biosynthesis from aspartate pathwyay. As a general rule, most prokaryotes utilize the aspartate de novo pathway, in which the nicotinate moiety of NAD is synthesized from aspartate, while in eukaryotes, the de novo pathway starts with tryptophan.
