Abstract
Inspection of the TLC pattern of the neutral lipid fraction of bovine thyroid reveals, in addition to cholesteryl esters and dolichyl fatty acid esters, the presence of a not yet identified compound in the most apolar lipid region. This unknown compound was purified on a preparative scale by silicic acid column chromatography, Lipidex-5000 gel-filtration chromatography and preparative thin-layer chromatography. By chemical (hydrolysis and reduction) and spectroscopic (ultraviolet, infrared, NMR, mass spectroscopy) methods this lipid was identified as dolichyl dolichoate. The homologue pattern was analyzed, by HPLC and FDMS, respectively.
