all-trans-nonaprenyl diphosphate
Definition
All-trans-nonaprenyl diphosphate is a member of the class of compounds known as bactoprenol diphosphates. Bactoprenol diphosphates are polyprenyl compounds consisting of a diphosphate group substituted by a bactoprenyl moiety. All-trans-nonaprenyl diphosphate is practically insoluble (in water) and a moderately acidic compound (based on its pKa). All-trans-nonaprenyl diphosphate can be found in a number of food items such as cloudberry, wild celery, sesbania flower, and nanking cherry, which makes all-trans-nonaprenyl diphosphate a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products.
Belongs to the class of organic compounds known as bactoprenol diphosphates. These are polyprenyl compounds consisting of a diphosphate group substituted by a bactoprenyl moiety.
