3-Methylvaleric Acid
3-Methylvaleric acid is a flavor compound found in tobacco. In research applications, it has been shown to increase intracellular cAMP levels and activate CRE-mediated transcription in cell lines such as CHO-K1 and HEK293. This makes it a useful small molecule for studying cAMP-dependent signaling pathways in vitro.
