DETAILS

Description (English)
General description
This certified reference material (CRM) is produced and certified in accordance with ISO/IEC 17025 and ISO Guide 34.
Other Notes
Values of analytes vary lot to lot.
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.
