Disease relevance of Methallylcarbinol

E. coli cells containing plasmid pXV62 have increased isoprenol kinase activity [1].

High impact information on Methallylcarbinol

Linalool and 3-methyl-3-buten-1-ol are made from a different pool of reduced carbon, possibly in nonphotosynthetic plastids [2].
Studies on the alkylation of 3-methyl-3-buten-1-ol dianion: an efficient synthesis of 3-methylene-1-alkanols including a San Jose scale sex pheromone [3].
These studies suggest that C6 glial cells are capable of converting GGol to geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate (GG-P-P), or perhaps a novel "activated" form of the allylic isoprenol, that can be utilized for protein isoprenylation reactions [4].
Acetaldehyde and 2-methyl-propanal were also produced on MEA and barley, while 2-pentanone, methyl acetate, 2-butanol and 3-methyl-3-buten-1-ol were observed on soybeans [5].
Studies have shown that mammalian cytochromes p450 participate in the metabolism of terpenes, yet their role in the biotransformation of farnesol, an endogenous 15-carbon isoprenol, is unknown [6].
