Identification
Common NameL-Octanoylcarnitine
ClassSmall Molecule
DescriptionL-Octanoylcarnitine belongs to the class of organic compounds known as acyl carnitines. These are organic compounds containing a fatty acid with the carboxylic acid attached to carnitine through an ester bond. Thus, L-octanoylcarnitine is considered to be a fatty ester lipid molecule. L-Octanoylcarnitine is a very hydrophobic molecule, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral. L-Octanoylcarnitine has been found to be associated with several diseases known as pregnancy, colorectal cancer, and ulcerative colitis; also l-octanoylcarnitine has been linked to several inborn metabolic disorders including celiac disease and very long chain acyl-coa dehydrogenase deficiency.
