Difference between Metabolism and Sphingosine

Metabolism vs. Sphingosine

Metabolism (from μεταβολή metabolē, "change") is the set of life-sustaining chemical transformations within the cells of organisms. 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 Metabolism and Sphingosine

Metabolism and Sphingosine have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Cell membrane, Lipid, Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, Phospholipid, Phosphorylation, Sphingolipid.

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

In biology and biochemistry, a lipid is a biomolecule that is soluble in nonpolar solvents.

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate, abbreviated NADP or, in older notation, TPN (triphosphopyridine nucleotide), is a cofactor used in anabolic reactions, such as lipid and nucleic acid synthesis, which require NADPH as a reducing agent.

Sphingolipid

Sphingolipids are a class of lipids containing a backbone of sphingoid bases, a set of aliphatic amino alcohols that includes sphingosine.

Metabolism and Sphingosine Comparison

Metabolism has 384 relations, while Sphingosine has 19. As they have in common 6, the Jaccard index is 1.49% = 6 / (384 + 19).
