Definition
ChEBI: D-citramalic acid is the D-enantiomer of citramalic acid. It is a conjugate acid of a D-citramalate(2-).
Biological Activity
Citramalate is a biochemical intermediate known to be involved in several aspects of bacterial metabolism, including, among others, the anaerobic metabolism of glutamate via the methylaspartate pathway of Clostridium tetanomorphum.
