Tetradecanoic acid

Tetradecanoic acid is a lipid of Fatty Acyls (FA) class. Tetradecanoic acid is associated with abnormalities such as Chronic lung disease, Infection, Spastic syndrome, Diabetes and Cardiovascular Diseases. The involved functions are known as Fatty acid biosynthetic process, Anabolism, lung alveolus development, 5-(carboxyamino)imidazole ribonucleotide mutase activity and Homeostasis. Tetradecanoic acid often locates in Structure of parenchyma of lung, Blood, Head, Membrane and Cytoplasmic matrix. The associated genes with Tetradecanoic acid are SLC33A1 gene, SFTPA1 gene, P4HTM gene, Polypeptides and GPR132 gene. The related lipids are Fatty Acids, Nonesterified Fatty Acids, palmitoleic acid, Phosphatidylglycerols and Butanols.
