9(Z),12(Z),15(Z),18(Z),21(Z)-Tetracosapentaenoic Acid

9(Z),12(Z),15(Z),18(Z),21(Z)-Tetracosapentaenoic acid is an omega-3 very long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acid. It has been used to study the desaturation and elongation of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids. It is elongated to form C26:5 or acted on by Delta6 desaturase to form C24:6. 9(Z),12(Z),15(Z),18(Z),21(Z)-Tetracosapentaenoic acid is found at low levels in mouse brain and spleen and levels decrease in the brain and spleen of old and exceptionally old mice.Formal Name: 9Z,12Z,15Z,18Z,21Z-tetracosapentaenoic acid.
