General description: | Palmitoyl-L-carnitine (PLC) belongs to the class of long chain acylcarnitine compounds. It is an acyl-chain ester, which can be obtained from L-carnitine via acylcarnitine family transferase. PLC is reported to be used for the phospholipid reacylation in erythrocyte membrane ghosts. |
