Abstract
Canaline reacts rapidly with glyoxylate, but more slowly with other alpha-keto acids, to form stable oximes. Oxidation of L-canaline with L-amino acid oxidase yields the cyclic, internal oxime, isoxazoline-3-carboxylate. L-Canaline-alpha-keto acid oximes are also substrates of L-amino acid oxidase, yielding isoxazoline-3-carboxylate, alpha-keto acid, and ammonia.
