CIS-8-EICOSENOIC ACID Usage And Synthesis

Uses

8(Z)-Eicosenoic acid is a cis-unsaturated free fatty acid with a 20-carbon chain. It potentiates acetylcholine (ACh) receptor channel currents without depression and enhances PCKε phosphorylation of a substrate peptide in Xenopus oocytes. 8(Z)-Eicosenoic acid constitutes 6% of the fatty acid pool in seed oil isolated from B. collina.

Definition

ChEBI: 8Z-eicosenoic acid is a long-chain fatty acid.
