Biosynthesis of nervonic acid and its homologues from carboxyl-labeled oleic acid*
An emulsion of carboxyl-labeled potassium oleate was injected directly into the brains of a group of rats, and 24 hr later the rats were sacrificed. The brain sphingolipids were isolated, and from these, the individual normal unsaturated acids. The major acid, nervonic, was cleaved by ozonolysis and...
