Metabolic intermediate

Metabolic intermediates refers to molecules which are the precursors or metabolites of biologically significant molecules.

Although these intermediates are of relatively less direct importance to cellular function, they can play important roles both in the allosteric regulation of enzymes.

Some can be useful in measuring rates of metabolic processes (for example, Dopac or 3-aminoisobutyrate).
