Isovaleric acid, also known as 3-methylbutanoic acid, is a natural fatty acid found in a variety of plants and essential oils. It is known for its strong pungent odor, similar to that of certain cheeses. In humans, isovaleric acid is part of the metabolic pathway for the breakdown of the amino acid, leucine. Perturbations in the metabolism of isovaleric acid, can lead to conditions such as isovaleric acidemia, a rare genetic metabolic disorder. Isovaleric acid is also a key player in the gut microbiome, and its concentration and metabolic products can influence the overall health of the host organism. Moreover, isovaleric acid is a flavor component in several food products, and understanding its metabolic fate can have implications in food science and nutrition.
