Metabolite Identification
Common Name1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid
Description1-Aminocyclopropanecarboxylic acid, also known as ACC or 1-amino-1-carboxycyclopropane, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as alpha amino acids. These are amino acids in which the amino group is attached to the carbon atom immediately adjacent to the carboxylate group (alpha carbon). 1-Aminocyclopropanecarboxylic acid exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. 1-Aminocyclopropanecarboxylic acid has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as green vegetables, black crowberries (Empetrum nigrum), prairie turnips (Pediomelum esculentum), small-leaf lindens (Tilia cordata), and carrots (Daucus carota ssp. sativus). This could make 1-aminocyclopropanecarboxylic acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. 1-Aminocyclopropanecarboxylic acid is a primary metabolite. Primary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically essential metabolites. They are directly involved in an organism’s growth, development or reproduction. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 1-Aminocyclopropanecarboxylic acid.
