These crystals, when tasted, reproduced the ineffable but undeniable flavor he detected in many foods, most especially in seaweed. Professor Ikeda termed this flavor <a href="/wiki/Umami" title="Umami">umami</a>.

In humans, dietary <a href="/wiki/Proteins" title="Proteins" class="mw-redirect">proteins</a> are broken down by digestion into <a href="/wiki/Amino_acids" title="Amino acids" class="mw-redirect">amino acids</a>, which serves as metabolic fuel for other functional roles in the body. A key process in amino acid degradation is <a href="/wiki/Transamination" title="Transamination">transamination</a>, in which the amino group of an amino acid is transferred to an α-ketoacid, typically catalysed by a <a href="/wiki/Transaminase" title="Transaminase">transaminase</a>. The reaction can be generalised as such:</p><dl><dd>R<sub>1</sub>-amino acid + R<sub>2</sub>-α-ketoacid <span class="Unicode">⇌</span> R<sub>1</sub>-α-ketoacid + R<sub>2</sub>-amino acid</dd></dl><p>A very common α-keto acid is α-ketoglutarate, an intermediate in the <a href="/wiki/Citric_acid_cycle" title="Citric acid cycle">citric acid cycle</a>. Transamination of α-ketoglutarate gives glutamate. The resulting α-ketoacid product is often a useful one as well, which can contribute as fuel or as a substrate for further metabolism processes.
