Beschreibung

3-Hydroxymyristic acid is a fatty acid that has been shown to inhibit the activity of esterases and lipases, which are enzymes involved in the hydrolysis of esters and triglycerides. It has also been shown to have antioxidant properties, as well as being a structural component of mitochondrial membranes. 3-Hydroxymyristic acid has been shown to reverse the inhibition of mitochondrial membrane potential by bacterial strains such as Listeria monocytogenes and Escherichia coli. This compound can be synthesized by a chemoselective reaction between myristic acid and 3-hydroxypentanoic acid, which is catalyzed by an asymmetric synthesis. The synthesis can be carried out in a high yield with good optical purity using wild-type strains of bacteria or experimental models such as rat liver cells or human erythrocytes.
