Metabolite Identification
Common Name10-Hydroxystearate
Description10-Hydroxystearate is a fatty acid derivative classified within the chemical class of hydroxystearic acids. Its chemical structure features a hydroxyl group at the 10th carbon position of the stearic acid backbone, which influences its physical and chemical properties. In terms of biochemical pathways, 10-hydroxystearate is involved in various metabolic processes, including its biotransformation into fragrant compounds such as γ-dodecalactone, as demonstrated by permeabilized Waltomyces lipofer cells (PMID:23396347 ). Additionally, among a series of saturated fatty acids, 10-hydroxystearate, along with its isomer 9-hydroxystearate, has been studied for its effects on water absorption, where it was found that only 12-hydroxystearate exhibited any significant inhibitory effect (PMID:1185605 ). This suggests that 10-hydroxystearate may play a role in modulating physiological processes, although its specific biological significance remains to be fully elucidated.
