Dolichol C90, with the CAS number 26113-10-0, is a polyisoprenoid alcohol primarily derived from porcine liver. It is characterized by a long hydrophobic carbon chain composed of multiple isoprene units, typically containing around 90 carbon atoms. This structure contributes to its role in cellular processes, particularly in the glycosylation of proteins and lipids, serving as a carrier for sugar moieties during the synthesis of glycoproteins. Dolichol C90 is lipid-soluble, which allows it to integrate into cellular membranes and participate in various biochemical pathways. Its synthesis and function are crucial for maintaining proper cellular function and protein maturation. Additionally, dolichols are involved in the biosynthesis of dolichol phosphate, which is essential for the assembly of N-linked oligosaccharides. The presence of dolichol in biological systems highlights its importance in cellular metabolism and the maintenance of cellular integrity.

C90-Dolichol (Dolichol-18)

Dolichol is an important constituent of cell membranes, especially in liver cells. It is a precursor to diphosphate synthase and has been shown to play a major role in the biosynthesis of membrane phospholipids. Dolichol-18 has been used as a diagnostic tool for liver diseases, such as fatty liver disease. The use of this compound can be used to identify the type and severity of liver damage by measuring the levels of its metabolites in the blood or urine. These metabolites are identifiable either by HPLC or GC-MS methodology.
