PRICE 29
DESCRIPTION Palmitic acid is the first fatty acid produced during lipogenesis and from which longer fatty acids can be produced. Palmitate negatively feeds back on acetyl-CoA carboxylase which is responsible for converting acetyl-ACP to malonyl-ACP on the growing acyl chain, thus preventing further palmitate generation. It is used as a food additive and emollient or surfactant in cosmetics. (Enamine Bioactive Compounds)
DESCRIPTION Palmitic acid (Cetylic acid) is a natural product, a common saturated fatty acid found in animals, plants and microorganisms. Palmitic acid has antitumor activity. (TargetMol Bioactive Compound Library)
