DETAILS

Description (English)
Packaging
1 kg in poly bottle
5, 10 kg in poly drum
1 sample in glass bottle
100 g in poly bottle
25 kg in fiber drum
Biochem/physiol Actions
Myristic acid is commonly added via a covalent linkage to the N-terminal glycine of many eukaryotic and viral proteins, a process called myristoylation. Myristoylation enables proteins to bind to cell membranes and facilitates protein-protein interactions. Myristolyation of proteins affect many cellular functions and thus has implications in health and disease 1.
