Isolation and identification of polyprenols from bovine thyroid gland. 1979

G van Dessel, and A Lagrou, and H J Hilderson, and R Dommisse, and E Esmans, and W Dierick

The presence of polyprenols in bovine thyroid was demonstrated. After preparative isolation, the structure was elucidated by chemical and spectroscopic techniques. The main polyprenol homologue has a molecular weight of 1380 corresponding to the presence of 20 isoprene units. From NMR studies it appears that 18 units have the cis configuration and that the 2 others are trans isoprene units. The dolichol content amounts to 0.2 mg/g wet weight. About 5% was found in the esterified form.

D004286 Dolichols A class of polyprenols which contain approximately 20 isoprene residues. Although considered ISOPRENOIDS, they terminate with an alpha-saturated isoprenoid group at the hydroxy end of the molecule. 6,10,14,18,22,26,30,34,38,42,46,50,54,58,62,66,70,74,78-Octacontanonadecaen-1-ol, 3,7,11,15,19,23,27,31,35,39,43,47,51,55,59,63,67,71,75,79-eicosamethyl-,Dolichol,Eicosamethyl Octacontanonadecasen-1-ol,Eicosamethyl Octacontanonadecasen 1 ol,Octacontanonadecasen-1-ol, Eicosamethyl
