Metabolite Identification
Common NameCE(16:0)
DescriptionCe(16:0), also known as CE or hexadecanoate, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as cholesteryl esters. Cholesteryl esters are compounds containing an esterified cholestane moiety. Thus, ce(16:0) is considered to be a sterol lipid molecule. Ce(16:0) exists as a solid, very hydrophobic, practically insoluble (in water), and relatively neutral molecule. Ce(16:0) exists in all eukaryotes, ranging from yeast to humans. Ce(16:0) has been linked to the inborn metabolic disorders including hypercholesterolemia.
