3-Methylglutaconic acid is a metabolite (as the CoA thioester) in the leucine degradative pathway as well as the mevalonate shunt, a pathway that links isoprenoid metabolism with mitochondrial acetyl-CoA metabolism. 3-Methylglutaconic acid accumulates in patients with a deficiency of 3-methylglutaconyl-CoA hydratase.

A method is described for quantification of the trace metabolite, 3-methylglutaconic acid, by isotope-dilution gas chromatography/mass spectrometry using synthetic 3-[2,4,6-13C3]methylglutaconic acid. Results are shown for quantification of 3-methylglutaconic acid in plasma, urine, cerebrospinal fluid and amniotic fluid for both normal
