Description
Phenylpyruvic acid is a precursor of the antifungal compound phenyllactic acid. Phenylpyruvic acid can improve the antifungal activity of eight lactic acid bacterial strains through the addition into a dedined growth medium. Phenylpyruvic acid demonstrates improved inhibitory activity against fungal bread contaminants Aspergillus niger and Penicillium roqueforti. Phenylpyruvic acid affects enzyme activity of the pentose phosphate pathway involved in the oxidative phase in rat brain homogenates. Phenylpyruvic acid can reduce glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase activity[1][2].

Chemical Information

Phenylpyruvic acid

Keto-phenylpyruvic acid is a 2-oxo monocarboxylic acid that is 3-phenylpropanoic acid substituted by an oxo group at position 2. It is an intermediate metabolite in the phenylalanine pathway. It has a role as a chromogenic compound, a fundamental metabolite and an EC 6.4.1.1 (pyruvate carboxylase) inhibitor. It is functionally related to a pyruvic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a keto-phenylpyruvate. It is a tautomer of an enol-phenylpyruvic acid.
