10-Methyloctadecanoic Acid/Methylester (Tuberculostearic acid)
Anderson and Chargaff in 1929 reported the presence of a new saturated fatty acid in lipids extracted from human tubercle bacilli. The compound was named "tuberculostearic acid" and was in subsequent work shown to have the structure 10(R)-methylstearic acid. Biosynthesis of this branched chain fatty takes place from phospholipid-bound oleate, which is methylated to the 10-methylene derivative by S-adenosylmethionine and subsequently reduced by NADPH. Current interest in tuberculostearic acid is focussed on its use as a marker to help diagnosing pulmonary tuberculosis. To this end, several methods based on GLC or GC-MS for determination of tuberculostearic acid in e.g. sputum have been developed
Unusal PUFAs/ Methyl esters
