Metabolite Identification
Common NamePC(16:1(9Z)/16:1(9Z))
DescriptionPC(16:1(9Z)/16:1(9Z)), also known as L-dipalmitoleoyllecithin or gpcho(16:1/16:1), belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phosphatidylcholines. These are glycerophosphocholines in which the two free -OH are attached to one fatty acid each through an ester linkage. Thus, PC(16:1(9Z)/16:1(9Z)) is considered to be a glycerophosphocholine lipid molecule. PC(16:1(9Z)/16:1(9Z)) is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. PC(16:1(9Z)/16:1(9Z)) exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans. PC(16:1(9Z)/16:1(9Z)) participates in a number of enzymatic reactions, within cattle. In particular, S-Adenosylhomocysteine and PC(16:1(9Z)/16:1(9Z)) can be biosynthesized from S-adenosylmethionine and pe-nme2(16:1(9Z)/16:1(9Z)); which is catalyzed by the enzyme phosphatidylethanolamine N-methyltransferase. Furthermore, Cytidine monophosphate and PC(16:1(9Z)/16:1(9Z)) can be biosynthesized from CDP-choline and DG(16:1(9Z)/16:1(9Z)/0:0) through the action of the enzyme choline/ethanolaminephosphotransferase. Finally, PC(16:1(9Z)/16:1(9Z)) and L-serine can be converted into choline and PS(16:1(9Z)/16:1(9Z)) through its interaction with the enzyme phosphatidylserine synthase. In cattle, PC(16:1(9Z)/16:1(9Z)) is involved in a couple of metabolic pathways, which include phosphatidylcholine biosynthesis PC(16:1(9Z)/16:1(9Z)) pathway and phosphatidylethanolamine biosynthesis pe(16:1(9Z)/16:1(9Z)) pathway.
