Linoleic acid is an essential fatty acid and one of the most abundant polyunsaturated fatty acids -PUFAs) in the western diet. Deficiencies in linoleic acid are linked to defective wound healing, growth retardation, and dermatitis. Linoleic acid is metabolized by 15-LO in both plants and animals to form 9- and 13-HODE. Linoleic acid-biotin was designed to allow linoleic acid to be detected in complexes with protein-binding partners such as fatty acid binding proteins -FABPs). Biotinylated lipids have been used to capture lipid-associated proteins in the study of lipid signaling and transport.
