Intermediate in the enzymatic oxidation of choline to betaine | [Definition]
ChEBI: Betaine Aldehyde Chloride is a quaternary ammonium salt. | [Biochem/physiol Actions]
Betaine aldehyde is the physiological intermediate in the oxidation of choline to betaine. Mechanistic studies show that in aqueous solution, it exists predominantly (99%) as the diol (hydrate) form. |
