2-keto-4-methylvalerate and Absence Seizure

2-keto-4-methylvalerate has been researched along with Absence Seizure in 2 studies

alpha-ketoisocaproic acid: RN given refers to parent cpd
4-methyl-2-oxopentanoate : A 2-oxo monocarboxylic acid anion that is the conjugate base of 4-methyl-2-oxopentanoic acid.
4-methyl-2-oxopentanoic acid : A 2-oxo monocarboxylic acid that is pentanoic acid (valeric acid) substituted with a keto group at C-2 and a methyl group at C-4. A metabolite that has been found to accumulate in maple syrup urine disease.
