glycerol-d

Glycerol-d8 is the deuterated form of Glycerol.

2-O-(α-D-Glucopyranosyl)glycerol (2-alphaGG) is present in certain bacteria and plants that thrive in harsh environments and may extend the lifespan of budding yeast and erythrosporidium by enhancing their osmotic response.

(2R)-Glycerol-O-β-D-galactopyranoside is a substrate for β-galactosidase, the lactose repressor, the galactose-binding protein, the β-methylgalactoside transport system, and the third lac operon encoded enzyme, thiogalactoside transacetylase.

Glycerol phenylbutyrate-D15 is a deuterium-labeled Glycerol phenylbutyrate. Glycerol phenylbutyrate is a sigma-2 (σ2) receptor ligand (pKi: 8.02).

1-Stearoyl-3-oleoyl-rac-glycerol is a diacylglycerol that contains stearic acid at the sn-1 position and oleic acid at the sn-3 position. Intermittent fasting decreases skeletal muscle and hepatic levels of 1-stearoyl-3-oleoyl-rac-glycerol in New Zealand obese (NZO) mice.1 The concentration of 1-stearoyl-3-oleoyl-rac-glycerol decreases from 4.59 to 1.88% during the dry-curing process of Iberian ham.2References1.

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) species are a common class of phospholipids that comprise the mammalian cell membrane. 1,2-Dioctanoyl PC is a synthetic analog of natural phosphatidylcholine species containing saturated C8:O fatty acids in the sn-1 and sn-2 positions of the glycerol backbone. It exhibits a critical micelle concentration (CMC) value of 0.25 mM at 27°C. 1,2-Dioctanoyl PC serves as an efficient substrate for phospholipase D (PLD) as well as sPLA2 isozymes from bovine pancreas and bee venom.

Phosphatidic acid is a phospholipid and an intermediate in glycerolipid biosynthesis. It is a transient intermediate in the synthesis of various phospholipid species that is synthesized de novo in cells via multiple routes, including the glycerol-3 phosphate and dihydroxyacetone phosphate pathways, enzymatic conversion of phosphatidylcholine by phospholipase D, and acetylation of lysophosphatidic acid by lysoPA-acyltransferase, among others. It has roles in shaping cellular membranes, cellular signaling, vesicle fission and fusion, as well as mitochondrial division and fusion. It stimulates respiratory burst in neutrophils independent of diacylglycerol and activates monoacylglycerol acyltransferase, phospholipase C (PLC), Ras, and phosphatidylinositol 4-phosphate (PIP4) kinase in several cell lines. Phosphatidic acids (egg) is a mixture of phosphatidic acids isolated from chicken egg with fatty acids of variable chain lengths.

The specific growth rates of C. raciborskii cells in media treated with β-glycerol phosphate, d-glucose-6-phosphate, and (2-aminoethyl)phosphinic acid are significantly higher than those of cells grown in phosphorus free media.
