3-Ketosphingosine trifluoroacetate is a chemically modified sphingomyelin analog with specific enzymatic pathway research activity. It is mainly used to explore the functions of sphingomyelin kinases and lyases in sphingomyelin metabolism. 3-Ketosphingosine trifluoroacetate has important application value in the study of cell signal transduction and related diseases. The study of 3-Ketosphingosine trifluoroacetate helps to deepen the understanding of sphingomyelin-related biological processes.
ChEBI: 3-dehydrosphingosine is a sphingoid that is the 3-keto analogue of sphingosine. It is an amino alcohol, an enone, a beta-hydroxy ketone and a sphingoid. It is functionally related to a sphing-4-enine and a sphingosine.
