Model studies using independently labeled D-[(13)C]glucoses and L-[(13)C]alanines have indicated that 2,3-butanedione is formed by a single pathway involving only glucose carbon atoms, whereas 2,3-pentanedione is formed by two pathways, one involving glucose carbon atoms (10%) and the other (90%) through the participation of C2'-C3' atoms of L-alanine and a C(3) carbon unit from D-glucose. Analysis of label incorporation into selected mass spectral fragments of 2,3-pentanedione have indicated that the C(3) carbon unit originates either from C1-C2-C3 or from C4-C5-C6 fragments of D-glucose. In addition, model studies with pyruvaldehyde and glyceraldehyde have implicated these intermediates as plausible C(3) glucose carbon units capable of producing 2,3-pentanedione upon reaction with L-alanine. The labeling studies have also confirmed a previously identified chemical transformation of alpha-keto aldehydes affected by the amino acid that leads to the addition of the C-2 atom of the amino acid to the aldehydic carbon atom of alpha-keto aldehydes.
