Function
Hydrocinnamic acid, also known as phenylpropanoic acid, is an analogue of phenylalanine. It is a substrate of the enzyme oxidoreductases (EC 1.14.12.-) in the pathway phenylalanine metabolism (KEGG). Hydrocinnamic acid is a microbial metabolite and it can be found in Clostridium and Eubacterium. It is a marker for the presence of Clostridium sporogenes in the gut. Higher levels are associated with higher levels of Clostridium sporogenes. Hydrocinnamic acid is detected after the consumption of whole grain.
