stearic acid

stearic acid is a lipid of Fatty Acyls (FA) class. Stearic acid is associated with abnormalities such as Helminthiasis, Exanthema, Chronic disease, Obesity and Dyslipidemias. The involved functions are known as acyltransferase activity, Mutation, Cell division, cell fate and Fatty Acid Metabolism. Stearic acid often locates in membrane fraction, Mouse Liver, Membrane, Body tissue and Endoplasmic reticulum, membrane. The associated genes with stearic acid are Homologous Gene, ACLY gene, Transgenes, FATE1 gene and Alleles. The related lipids are Lysophospholipids, Stearic acid, Fatty Acids, cis-vaccenic acid and Phosphatidylserines. The related experimental models are Knock-out.
