Metabolite Identification
Common NameTrans-Hexa-dec-2-enoic acid
Descriptiontrans-Hexa-dec-2-enoic acid, also known as (2E)-trans-hexa-dec-2-enoic acid or Trans-hexa-dec-2-enoic acid, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as long-chain fatty acids. These are fatty acids with an aliphatic tail that contains between 13 and 21 carbon atoms. trans-Hexa-dec-2-enoic acid is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. trans-Hexa-dec-2-enoic acid exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans. trans-Hexa-dec-2-enoic acid participates in a number of enzymatic reactions, within cattle. In particular, trans-Hexa-dec-2-enoic acid can be biosynthesized from (R)-3-hydroxy-hexadecanoic acid through the action of the enzyme fatty acid synthase. dyhydrase domain. In addition, trans-Hexa-dec-2-enoic acid can be converted into palmitic acid through the action of the enzyme fatty acid synthase. enoyl reductase domain. In cattle, trans-hexa-dec-2-enoic acid is involved in the metabolic pathway called fatty acid biosynthesis pathway.
