acetate!
acetate—a byproduct of the alcohol breakdown produced mostly in
the liver—travels to the brain’s learning system and directly alters
proteins that regulate DNA function. This impacts how some genes are
expressed and ultimately affects how mice behave when given
environmental cues to consume alcohol. Their findings were published
today in Nature.

The key difference between acetic acid and acetate is that acetic acid is a neutral compound whereas acetate is an anion having a net negative electrical charge.
