4358 Hydroxypropionic acid 3-Hydroxypropionic acid is a carboxylic acid. It is used in the production of various chemicals such as acrylates in industry. It can be produced by certain microbes. Its chemical structure is similar to L-serine. 503-66-2 68152 C3H6O3 < 25°C 143°C (sodium salt) decomposes 3-hydroxypropionic acid (3HP) toxicity is mediated by 3-hydroxypropionic aldehyde (reuterin). 3HP toxicity is also proposed to be related to inhibition of the chorismate and threonine super-pathways. Generally, the toxicity mechanism of 3HP is not understood at the molecular level. (A15450) No indication of carcinogenicity to humans (not listed by IARC). This is an endogenously produced metabolite found in the human body. It is used in metabolic reactions, catabolic reactions or waste generation. Chronically high levels of hydroxypropionic acid are associated with at least 5 inborn errors of metabolism including: Biotinidase deficiency, Malonic Aciduria, Methylmalonate Semialdehyde Dehydrogenase Deficiency, Methylmalonic Aciduria, Methylmalonic, Aciduria Due to Cobalamin-Related Disorders and Propionic acidemia. 2014-08-29T06:17:33Z 2026-04-04T02:21:28Z Hydroxypropionic acid C01013 33404 DB03688 3OH true OCCC(O)=O C3H6O3 InChI=1S/C3H6O3/c4-2-1-3(5)6/h4H,1-2H2,(H,5,6) ALRHLSYJTWAHJZ-UHFFFAOYSA-N 90.0779 90.031694058 Endogenous Liquid HMDB00700 CHEMBL1205969 61460 CHEM003264 DTXSID50198305 3-hydroxypropanoic acid
