3-amino-2-methylpropanoic acid

3-Amino-2-methylpropanoic acid (α-Methyl-β-alanine) is the product from the conversion of N-carbamyl-beta-aminoisobutyric acid by the enzyme Beta-ureidopropionase (EC 3.5.1.6), the last step in pyrimidine degradation. Beta-ureidopropionase deficiency is an inborn error of pyrimidine degradation associated with neurological abnormalities.
