3-Methylhexadecanoic acid is a lipid of Fatty Acyls (FA) class. The involved functions are known as Oxidation, acidification, Process, Vmax and racemization. 3-methylhexadecanoic acid often locates in peroxisome and Mitochondria. The associated genes with 3-Methylhexadecanoic acid are PHYH gene and HADHA gene. The related lipids are 2-methylhexadecanoic acid, Fatty Acids, 3-methylhexadecanoic acid, hydroxy fatty acid and branched chain fatty acid.
