Biochem/physiol Actions
Isovalerylglycine is a byproduct of the catabolism of the amino acid leucine. Accumulation of isovalerylglycine occurs in Isovaleric Acidemia (IVA), an autosomal recessive disorder caused by mutations in the isovaleryl-CoA dehydrogenase gene. The deficiency of this enzyme in the metabolism of leucine leads to the accumulation of a series of isovaleryl-CoA metabolites, such as isovalerylglycine (IVG).

Recent neonatal screening for isovaleric acidemia by tandem mass spectrometry based on dried blood-spot levels of C5-acylcarnitines, including isovalerylcarnitine and its isomer, pivaloylcarnitine, which is derived from pivalate-generating antibiotics, has caused many false-positive results. We have developed a method to

A stable isotope dilution method was developed to measure accurately small amounts of isovalerylglycine in amniotic fluid and urine for the prenatal diagnosis of isovaleric acidemia. [4,4,4-D3]Isovalerylglycine was synthesized and used as an internal standard. Samples were extracted, methylated, and
