3-Methylglutaric acid 是亮氨酸代谢物，是一种与两种亮氨酸途径 HMGCL、AUH 酶缺陷显著相关的 C6 二元羧酸有机酸。

Methylglutaric acid is a leucine metabolite. A large amount of methylglutaric acid is identified in urine of patients with deficiency of 3-methylglutaconyl coenzyme A hydratase (PMID 6181239 ). Methylglutaric acid is also found to be associated with 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase deficiency, another inborn error of metabolism.
