The Uses of Nervonic ceramide
N-Nervonoyl-D-sphingosine is a sphingolipid. Sphingolipids (SLs) act as signaling molecules and as structural components in both neuronal cells and myelin.
The Uses of Nervonic ceramide
Production of ceramide occurs upon hydrolysis of sphingomyelin by a specific isoform of phospholipase C, appropriately named sphingomyelinase.
What are the applications of Application
C24:1 Ceramide is a naturally occurring ceramide
What are the applications of Application
Nervonic ceramide is a naturally occurring ceramide and an integral part of the sphingomyelin cycle
Definition
ChEBI: N-(15Z)-tetracosenoylsphingosine is an N-tetracosenoylsphingosine in which the double bond in the ceramide acyl group is located at position 15 (the Z-geoisomer. It has a role as a mouse metabolite. It is a N-tetracosenoylsphingosine and a Cer(d42:2). It is functionally related to a (15Z)-tetracosenoic acid.
