Task: Please answer the following question about the molecule with SMILES CC(=O)C(=O)[O-].
Question: Please describe this drug.
Answer: Pyruvate is a 2-oxo monocarboxylic acid anion that is the conjugate base of pyruvic acid, arising from deprotonation of the carboxy group. It has a role as a fundamental metabolite and a cofactor. It is functionally related to a propionate. It is a conjugate base of a pyruvic acid.
