CompoundDescription
WaterA clear, odorless, tasteless liquid that is essential for most animal and plant life and is an excellent solvent for many substances. The chemical formula is hydrogen oxide (H2O). (McGraw-Hill Dictionary of Scientific and Technical Terms, 4th ed)
palmitic acidA common saturated fatty acid found in fats and waxes including olive oil, palm oil, and body lipids.
guanosine diphosphateA guanine nucleotide containing two phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety.
Guanosine MonophosphateA guanine nucleotide containing one phosphate group esterified to the sugar moiety and found widely in nature.
Guanosine DiphosphateA guanine nucleotide containing two phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety.
adenosine monophosphateAdenine nucleotide containing one phosphate group esterified to the sugar moiety in the 2'-, 3'-, or 5'-position.
adenosine triphosphateAn adenine nucleotide containing three phosphate groups esterified to the sugar moiety. In addition to its crucial roles in metabolism adenosine triphosphate is a neurotransmitter.
Coenzyme A
Palmitoyl Coenzyme AA fatty acid coenzyme derivative which plays a key role in fatty acid oxidation and biosynthesis.
