Uses
15-hexadecynoic acid is a form of palmitic acid with an ω-terminal alkyne. The terminal alkyne group can be used in linking reactions, known as click chemistry; this chemistry is characterized by high dependability and specificity of the azide-alkyne bioconjugation reactions. The use of palmitic acid alkyne and related lipids in isolating palmitoylated proteins has been described. Palmitic acid (15-yne) has been used as a component of fatty acid probe stock solution for the optimization of Alk-C16 incorporation onto cellular proteins. It is also suitable for metabolic labeling.
