  <name>N-Acetyl-L-phenylalanine</name>
  <description>Acetylphenylalanine is a hazardous amphipathic metabolite of phenylalanine. It appears in large amount in urine of patients with phenylketonuria which is a human genetic disorder due to the lack of phenylalanine hydroxylase, the enzyme necessary to metabolize phenylalanine to tyrosine. Acetylphenylalanine is a product of enzyme phenylalanine N-acetyltransferase [EC 2.3.1.53] in the pathway phenylalanine metabolism. (KEGG; Wikipedia) [HMDB]</description>

  <taxonomy>
    <description> belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenylalanine and derivatives. Phenylalanine and derivatives are compounds containing phenylalanine or a derivative thereof resulting from reaction of phenylalanine at the amino group or the carboxy group, or from the replacement of any hydrogen of glycine by a heteroatom.</description>
