α-KMV (α-Keto-β-Methyl-n-Valeric Acid) is a keto acid with a chemical structure consisting of a five-carbon chain, with a methyl group at the β position and a keto group at the α position. This compound mainly originates from the metabolism of leucine, serving as a key intermediate in the leucine catabolic pathway. α-KMV exhibits certain biological activities, playing a role in regulating protein metabolism and energy balance. Its metabolites, including isovaleric acid and hydroxyvaleric acid, are crucial in energy metabolism, particularly in the catabolism of branched-chain amino acids. Analyzing the levels of α-KMV and its metabolites in plant and biological samples is essential for understanding the dynamic regulation of branched-chain amino acid metabolism, uncovering metabolic disorders, and their roles in plant growth and development. Accurate analysis of these metabolites can help reveal physiological states and metabolic health in plants and animals.
