Description | 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. Within humans, trans-hexa-dec-2-enoic acid participates in a number of enzymatic reactions. In particular, trans-hexa-dec-2-enoic acid can be biosynthesized from (R)-3-hydroxy-hexadecanoic acid; which is catalyzed by 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. Hexadecenic acid is found in Althaea officinalis, Arbacia punctulata, Asclepias syriaca, Cystoclonium purpureum, Erylus formosus, Euphausia superba, Fagopyrum esculentum, Ganoderma applanatum, Hibiscus syriacus, Hoya multiflora, Hoya pottsii and Lumbricus terrestris. In humans, trans-hexa-dec-2-enoic acid is involved in fatty acid biosynthesis. |
