C16-Dihydroceramide

Description:
C16-Dihydroceramide is a sphingolipid, a class of lipids that play crucial roles in cellular structure and signaling. It is characterized by a long-chain fatty acid, specifically a 16-carbon chain, which contributes to its hydrophobic properties. The molecule consists of a sphingosine backbone with an amine group and a fatty acid moiety, making it a key component of cellular membranes, particularly in the skin and nervous system. C16-Dihydroceramide is involved in various biological processes, including cell signaling, apoptosis, and the regulation of cell growth and differentiation. Its structure allows it to participate in the formation of lipid rafts, which are microdomains in cell membranes that facilitate protein-protein interactions. Additionally, this compound is of interest in dermatological research due to its role in skin barrier function and hydration. The CAS number 5966-29-0 uniquely identifies this substance in chemical databases, aiding in its study and application in both research and industry.
