Description:

Glycine, N-[S-[1-(4-carboxy-1-hydroxybutyl)-2,4,6,9-pentadecatetraenyl]-L-cysteinyl]-, [R-[R*,S*-(E,E,E,Z)]]- (9CI), with CAS number 79768-40-4, is a complex organic compound characterized by its unique structure that includes both amino acid and fatty acid components. It features a glycine backbone, which is the simplest amino acid, and is modified with a cysteine residue that contains a sulfur atom, contributing to its potential reactivity and biological activity. The presence of a long-chain fatty acid moiety, specifically a pentadecatetraenyl group, suggests that this compound may exhibit amphiphilic properties, allowing it to interact with both hydrophilic and hydrophobic environments. Additionally, the presence of multiple functional groups, including carboxylic acid and hydroxyl groups, indicates potential for hydrogen bonding and reactivity in biochemical processes. This compound may be of interest in fields such as biochemistry, pharmacology, and materials science due to its potential applications in drug delivery systems or as a biochemical probe.
