Metabolite Identification
Common Namecis-5-Tetradecenoylcarnitine
DescriptionTetradecenoylcarnitine belongs to the class of organic compounds known as acyl carnitines. These are organic compounds containing a fatty acid with the carboxylic acid attached to carnitine through an ester bond. Thus, tetradecenoylcarnitine is considered to be a fatty ester lipid molecule. Tetradecenoylcarnitine is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. Tetradecenoylcarnitine exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans. Tetradecenoylcarnitine has been found to be associated with several diseases known as obesity and eosinophilic esophagitis; also tetradecenoylcarnitine has been linked to the inborn metabolic disorders including very long chain acyl-coa dehydrogenase deficiency.
