Amino Acid/Protein Metabolism

Amino acid or protein metabolism disorders with epilepsy involve inherited metabolic defects that disrupt the normal breakdown or synthesis of amino acids or proteins, leading to the accumulation of toxic metabolites or deficiencies in essential compounds. These conditions often present with neurological symptoms, including seizures (epilepsy), developmental delay, intellectual disability, and abnormal muscle tone. Common examples include urea cycle disorders (e.g., ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency), organic acidemias (e.g., methylmalonic acidemia), and aminoacidopathies (e.g., phenylketonuria, maple syrup urine disease). Early diagnosis through newborn screening and prompt treatment—such as dietary restriction of specific amino acids, supplementation with cofactors or alternative pathways, and management of metabolic crises—are critical to preventing severe neurological damage and improving outcomes. Epilepsy in these disorders may result from neurotoxic metabolite buildup, energy deficiency in neurons, or disruption of neurotransmitter balance.

    N-Propargylglycine 58160-95-5 99.70%
    N-Propargylglycine is a brain-penetrant and orally active PRODH inhibitor. N-Propargylglycine covalently modifies enzyme-bound FAD and active site lysine, causing enzyme structural distortion, protein decay, and irreversible inhibition of proline and 4-hydroxyproline catabolism. N-Propargylglycine induces UPRmt, upregulates mitochondrial chaperones and YME1L1, enhances mitochondrial proteostasis, blocks astrocytic L-proline consumption, and abolishes L-proline’s ATP-maintaining and viability-protective effects. N-Propargylglycine stimulates neural processes, increases brain proline, hydroxyproline, and sarcosine levels, partially normalizes Huntington’s disease whole brain transcriptomes. N-Propargylglycine reduces hyperoxaluria, prevents calcium oxalate stone formation, reduces kidney tubular damage, and restores weight and survival in Grhpr knockout mice. N-Propargylglycine can be used for the research of breast cancer, neurodegenerative disorders, Huntington’s disease, and primary hyperoxaluria type 2.
