Description:
A nicotinic acid analog. Substrate analog MHPCO, used in the investigation of the hydroxylation mechanism of the flaovoprotein 2-methyl-3-hydroxypyridine-5-carboxylic acid oxygenase (MHPCO). Also used as building block for synthesis. Hydroxynicotinic acid is formed by the enzymatic action of nicotinate with nicotinic acid hydroxylase or nicotinate hydroxylase.
