The molecule is a hydroxy fatty amide ascaroside obtained by obtained by formal condensation of the 26-hydroxy group of (26R)-26-hydroxy-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3-oxoheptacosanamide with ascarylopyranose (the alpha anomer). It is a metabolite of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. It has a role as a Caenorhabditis elegans metabolite. It is a hydroxy fatty amide ascaroside, a N-acylethanolamine and a monocarboxylic acid amide.
(26R)-26-[(2R,3R,5R,6S)-3,5-dihydroxy-6-methyloxan-2-yl]oxy-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)-3-oxoheptacosanamide
