Isovaleric acid, also known as 3-methylbutanoic acid, is a branched-chain fatty acid with a pungent odor. It is a colorless liquid that is found naturally in various plants and animals. Isovaleric acid has been studied for its potential applications in various fields, including medicine, cosmetics, and food production.
In the medical field, isovaleric acid is a precursor to the synthesis of valproic acid, an anticonvulsant drug used to treat epilepsy. It has also been investigated for its potential role in the treatment of other neurological disorders, such as Alzheimer's disease and Parkinson's disease.
In the cosmetic industry, isovaleric acid is used as a fragrance ingredient due to its pleasant odor. It is also used as a flavoring agent in the food industry, particularly in the production of cheese and dairy products.
Isovaleric acid is also a byproduct of the metabolism of leucine, an essential amino acid. Elevated levels of isovaleric acid in the blood can indicate a genetic disorder known as isovaleric acidemia, a rare metabolic disease that can lead to developmental delays and neurological problems. This makes the study of isovaleric acid in the medical field important for understanding the underlying causes of such diseases and developing potential treatments.'

Isovaleric acid (IVA) is a 5-carbon branched-chain fatty acid present in fermented foods and produced in the colon by bacterial fermentation of leucine. It is an unusual fatty acid that is important for echolocation and hearing in acoustic tissues of some odontocetes. Its functional significance in blubber is unknown.

| Canavan Disease A rare neurodegenerative condition of infancy or childhood characterized by white matter vacuolization and demeylination that gives rise to a spongy appearance. Aspartoacylase deficiency leads to an accumulation of N-acetylaspartate in astrocytes. Inheritance may be autosomal recessive or the illness may occur sporadically. This illness occurs more frequently in individuals of Ashkenazic Jewish descent. The neonatal form features the onset of hypotonia and lethargy at birth, rapidly progressing to coma and death. The infantile form features developmental delay, DYSKINESIAS, hypotonia, spasticity, blindness, and megalencephaly. The juvenile form is characterized by ATAXIA; OPTIC ATROPHY; and DEMENTIA.

Type II tyrosinemia features INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY, painful corneal ulcers, and keratoses of the palms and plantar surfaces and is caused by a deficiency of the enzyme TYROSINE TRANSAMINASE. Type III tyrosinemia features INTELLECTUAL DISABILITY and is caused by a deficiency of the enzyme 4-HYDROXYPHENYLPYRUVATE DIOXYGENASE.
