2-Acetolactate (YMDB00394)

Identification
YMDB IDYMDB00394
Name2-Acetolactate
SpeciesSaccharomyces cerevisiae
StrainBaker's yeast
Description2-Acetolactate belongs to the class of organic compounds known as short-chain keto acids and derivatives. These are keto acids with an alkyl chain the contains less than 6 carbon atoms. 2-Acetolactate is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. 2-Acetolactate exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans.
