Difference between Lipid and Sphingosine

Lipid vs. Sphingosine

In biology and biochemistry, a lipid is a biomolecule that is soluble in nonpolar solvents. Sphingosine (2-amino-4-octadecene-1,3-diol) is an 18-carbon amino alcohol with an unsaturated hydrocarbon chain, which forms a primary part of sphingolipids, a class of cell membrane lipids that include sphingomyelin, an important phospholipid.

Similarities between Lipid and Sphingosine

Lipid and Sphingosine have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cell membrane, Ceramide, Lipid, Lipid signaling, Phospholipid, Serine, Sphingolipid, Sphingomyelin, Sphingosine-1-phosphate.

Cell membrane

The cell membrane (also known as the plasma membrane or cytoplasmic membrane, and historically referred to as the plasmalemma) is a biological membrane that separates the interior of all cells from the outside environment (the extracellular space).

Lipid signaling

Lipid signaling, broadly defined, refers to any biological signaling event involving a lipid messenger that binds a protein target, such as a receptor, kinase or phosphatase, which in turn mediate the effects of these lipids on specific cellular responses.

Sphingomyelin

Sphingomyelin (SPH, ˌsfɪŋɡoˈmaɪəlɪn) is a type of sphingolipid found in animal cell membranes, especially in the membranous myelin sheath that surrounds some nerve cell axons.
