Common NameIsocitric acid
DescriptionIsocitric acid, also known as isocitrate or i-cit, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as tricarboxylic acids and derivatives. These are carboxylic acids containing exactly three carboxyl groups. Isocitric acid is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Isocitric acid exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to humans. Outside of the human body, Isocitric acid is found, on average, in the highest concentration within milk (cow). Isocitric acid has also been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as carrots, redcurrants, wild carrots, apples, and gooseberries. This could make isocitric acid a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. The citrate oxidation to Isocitric acid is catalyzed by the enzyme aconitase.
