Abietic acid

Abietic acid is a lipid of Prenol Lipids (PR) class. Abietic acid is associated with abnormalities such as Hand eczema, Dermatitis, Vitelliform dystrophy, Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome and Dehydration. The involved functions are known as Process, Oxidation, Anabolism, Transmembrane Transport and physiological aspects. Abietic acid often locates in Membrane, Protoplasm, Microsomes and Cellular Membrane. The associated genes with Abietic acid are SLC33A1 gene and ABCG2 gene. The related lipids are Pinene.
