Metabolite Identification
Common NamePalmitoylglycine
DescriptionN-hexadecanoylglycine, also known as N-palmitoylglycine or elmiric acid, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as n-acyl-alpha amino acids. N-acyl-alpha amino acids are compounds containing an alpha amino acid which bears an acyl group at its terminal nitrogen atom. Thus, N-hexadecanoylglycine is considered to be a fatty amide. Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on N-hexadecanoylglycine.
