Lignoceric acid

Lignoceric acid is a lipid of Fatty Acyls (FA) class. Lignoceric acid is associated with abnormalities such as Adrenoleukodystrophy and Peroxisomal Disorders. The involved functions are known as Anabolism, establishment and maintenance of localization, Saturated, Process and long-chain-fatty-acid-CoA ligase activity. Lignoceric acid often locates in Membrane, Microsomes, Plasma membrane, peroxisome and Mitochondria. The associated genes with Lignoceric acid are SLC27A1 gene, CD36 gene, F10 gene, INHA gene and ABCD1 gene. The related lipids are Sphingolipids, Fatty Acids, erucic acid, inositolphosphoceramides and Palmitates.
