Within the cell glyceryl trimyristate is primarily located in the membrane (predicted from logP) and adiposome. glyceryl trimyristate exists in all eukaryotes ranging from yeast to humans. In humans glyceryl trimyristate is involved in the metabolic disorder called de novo triacylglycerol biosynthesis glyceryl trimyristate pathway.

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. Methylglutaric acid is also found to be associated with 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA lyase deficiency another inborn error of metabolism.
