What is α-Ketoglutaric acid powder?
α-Ketoglutaric acid is one of two ketone derivatives of glutaric acid (unless otherwise specified, the term "ketoglutaric acid" mostly refers to the α-form. β-Ketoglutaric acid The acid is just a different position of the ketone group and is less commonly used) white fine crystalline powder. Melting point 113.5℃. Easily soluble in water and alcohol, extremely difficult to dissolve in ether, it turns pale grayish yellow after long-term storage and is easily deliquescent. The anion of this substance, alpha-ketoglutarate, is an important biological compound. It is the ketoacid product of glutamate deamination and is an intermediate in the tricarboxylic acid cycle.

How about α-Ketoglutaric acid?
The function of α-ketoglutarate can be seen in three dimensions:
1. Krebs cycle
α-Ketoglutarate is an important metabolic intermediate in the microbial tricarboxylic acid cycle and a key node connecting intracellular carbon-nitrogen metabolism. Its position in the cycle is located after isocitrate and before succinyl-CoA. At this site, the anaplerotic reaction can produce α-ketoglutarate through the transamination of glutamate to supplement this intermediate metabolite. It can also be achieved by glutamate dehydrogenase acting on glutamate. this purpose.
2. Generate amino acids
Glutamic acid can generate glutamine under the action of glutamine synthase. This enzyme uses a molecule of ATP to generate glutamyl phosphate; this intermediate product is attacked by ammonia as a nucleophile to form glutamine. with inorganic phosphoric acid.
3. Dietary supplements
Alpha-ketoglutarate is sold as a dietary supplement under the trade name AKG or a-KG to fitness enthusiasts or bodybuilders who claim it can improve performance at the peak of training. The seller claims this is based on "research showing that excess ammonia can be bound to alpha-ketoglutarate and carried away to reduce the many problems caused by ammonia poisoning." However, studies showing that alpha-ketoglutarate is effective in reducing ammonia poisoning have only been conducted in patients already undergoing hemodialysis.
Supplements are often used as ingredients in sports nutrition drinks. It is used as an organic intermediate, biochemical reagent, and supporting reagent for measuring liver function. Used to reduce body wear and tear in postoperative patients and long-term patients. In the brain as a precursor of tyrosine and glutamate. (α-ketoglutarate can generate glutamate through transamination)
α-ketoglutaric acid also has anti-cyanide effect. Tests show that when used in combination with sodium nitrite and sodium thiosulfate, it can improve the anti-cyanide ability and has anti-convulsant effects.
