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 exists in all living species, ranging from bacteria to plants to humans. In yeast, 2-acetolactate is involved in the metabolic pathway called the valine biosynthesis pathway. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 2-Acetolactate.
