CDP-glycerol
Cdp-glycerol is a member of the class of compounds known as cdp-glycerols. Cdp-glycerols are glycerolipids with a cytidine diphosphate attached to the oxygen O1 or O2 of the glycerol part. Cdp-glycerol is slightly soluble (in water) and a moderately acidic compound (based on its pKa). Cdp-glycerol can be found in a number of food items such as pummelo, elderberry, mugwort, and american butterfish, which makes cdp-glycerol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these food products. Cdp-glycerol is part of the Purine metabolism, and Glycerophospholipid metabolism pathways. It is a substrate for: Manganese-dependent ADP-ribose/CDP-alcohol diphosphatase.
