Member | Definition | Class |
2-aminoadipic acid | An alpha-amino acid that is adipic acid bearing a single amino substituent at position 2. An intermediate in the formation of lysine. | 2-aminoadipic acid |
ascr#3 | An (omega-1)-hydroxy fatty acid ascaroside obtained by formal condensation of the alcoholic hydroxy group of (2E,8R)-8-hydroxynon-2-enoic acid with ascarylopyranose (the alpha anomer). It is a major component of the dauer pheromone, used by the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans as a population-density signal to promote entry into an alternate larval stage, the nonfeeding and highly persistent dauer diapause, and also synergises with ascr#2, ascr#4, and ascr#8 in male attraction. | ascr#3 |
ascr#5 | An omega-hydroxy fatty acid ascaroside obtained by formal condensation of the alcoholic hydroxy group of 3-hydroxypropanoic acid with ascarylopyranose (the alpha anomer). A major component of the dauer pheromone of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, it synergises with ascr#2 and ascr#3 as a population-density signal to promote entry into an alternate larval stage, the nonfeeding and highly persistent dauer diapause. | ascr#5 |
delta7-dafachronic acid | A Delta(7)-dafachronic acid that has S configuration at position 25 (the carbon attached to the carboxy group). | (25S)-Delta(7)-dafachronic acid |
glycerol 1-stearate | A 1-monoglyceride that has stearoyl as the acyl group. | 1-monostearoylglycerol; rac-1-monostearoylglycerol |
triolein | A triglyceride formed by esterification of the three hydroxy groups of glycerol with oleic acid. Triolein is one of the two components of Lorenzo's oil. | triolein |
tristearin | A triglyceride that is glycerol in which all three hydroxy groups have been formally esterified with stearic acid. | tristearoylglycerol |
