Bioactivity | 1,2-Dimyristoyl-rac-glycerol (C14:0) is a carboxylic acid ester, glycerolipid and diglyceride with an additional myristoyl group that facilitates interactions between proteins and lipids. Can be used as detergent or reagent. It plays a role in cell biology experiments involving the metabolism and metabolic pathways of glycerolipids. As a diglyceride, this substance consists of two fatty acid chains covalently bonded in the 1,2-form to a glycerol molecule. The diglyceride (DAG) study investigated the process by which DAG is depleted to inhibit fat accumulation. Reagent grade, for research use only. |
