Breakdown of 2-hydroxylated straight chain fatty acids via peroxisomal 2-hydroxyphytanoyl-CoA lyase: a revised pathway for the alpha-oxidation of straight chain fatty acids.

J. Biol. Chem. 280 , 9802-9812, (2005)

2-Hydroxyfatty acids, constituents of brain cerebrosides and sulfatides, were previously reported to be degraded by an alpha-oxidation system, generating fatty acids shortened by one carbon atom. In t...

Nonequilibrium 2-hydroxyoctadecanoic acid monolayers: effect of electrolytes.

Langmuir 27 , 4430-4438, (2011)

2-Hydroxyacids display complex monolayer phase behavior due to the additional hydrogen bonding afforded by the presence of the second hydroxy group. The placement of this group at the position α to th...

Ceramides with 2-hydroxylated, very long-chain polyenoic fatty acids in rodents: From testis to fertilization-competent spermatozoa.

Biochimie 92 , 1778-1786, (2010)

Sphingolipids from rodent testis and spermatozoa are known to contain non-hydroxylated (N-) and 2-hydroxylated (2-OH) very-long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (VLCPUFA). In this study, the contribu...
