| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Very long chain fatty acids derived from docosahexaenoic acid by the action of fatty acid elongases are important in retinal development and macular diseases.1,2,3 These fatty acids are commonly incorporated into the sn-1 position of membrane phospholipids, predominantly phosphatidylcholine, and are involved in binding the photoreceptor rhodopsin. | [Uses]
all-cis-14,17,20,23,26,29-Dotriacontahexaenol (14(Z),17(Z),20(Z),23(Z),26(Z),29(Z)-Dotriacontahexaenol) is a long-chain fatty alcohol. It is an intermediate in the synthesis of the very long-chain PUFA all-cis-14,17,20,23,26,29-dotriacontahexaenoic acid[1][2]. | [References]
