Palmitic acid is the first fatty acid produced during ] (fatty acid synthesis) and from which longer fatty acids can be produced. Palmitate negatively feeds back on ] (ACC), which is responsible for converting acetyl-CoA to malonyl-CoA, which in turn is used to add to the growing acyl chain, thus preventing further palmitate generation.<ref></ref> In biology, some proteins are modified by the addition of a palmitoyl group in a process known as ]. Palmitoylation is important for membrane localisation of many proteins. |

==Uses and occurrence== |

The ] claims that dietary intake of palmitic acid increases risk of developing cardiovascular diseases.<ref>, WHO Technical Report Series 916, Report of a Joint WHO/FAO Expert Consultation, ], Geneva, 2003, p. 88 (Table)</ref>However, another study showed that palmitic acid has no hypercholesterolaemic effect if intake of ] is greater than 4.5% of energy. On the other hand, it was shown that, if the diet contains trans fatty acids, the health effects are negative, causing an LDL cholesterol increase and HDL cholesterol decrease.<ref>{{cite journal |author=French MA, Sundram K, Clandinin MT |title=Cholesterolaemic effect of palmitic acid in relation to other dietary fatty acids |journal=Asia Pacific journal of clinical nutrition |volume=11 Suppl 7 |issue= |pages=S401–7 |year=2002 |pmid=12492626 |doi=10.1046/j.1440-6047.11.s.7.3.x}}</ref> |

==Applications== |
|
Cetyl palmitate occurs in ]. ] is an ] and a source of ] added to low fat milk to replace the vitamin content lost through the removal of milk fat. Palmitate is attached to the alcohol form of vitamin A, ], to make vitamin A stable in milk. Palmitate esters are also the major component of ]. The word palmitate is from the French "palmitique", the pith of the palm tree. |
|
|
|
=== Surfactant === |
|
|
Palmitic acid is used to produce ]s, ], and industrial mold ]s. These applications use '''sodium palmitate''', which is commonly obtained by ] of palm oil. To this end, palm oil, rendered from palm trees (species '']''), is treated with ] (in the form of caustic soda or lye), which causes ] of the ] groups, yielding ] and sodium palmitate. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
=== Foods === |
|
Recently, a long-acting antipsychotic medication, ] palmitate (marketed as INVEGA Sustenna), used in the treatment of ], has been synthesized using the oily palmitate ester as a long-acting release carrier medium when injected intramuscularly. The underlying method of drug delivery is similar to that used with ] to deliver long-acting depot medication, in particular, neuroleptics such as ] decanoate. |
|
|
|
Because it is inexpensive and adds texture and "]" to processed foods (]), palmitic acid and its sodium salt find wide use in foodstuffs. Sodium palmitate is permitted as a natural additive in ] products.<ref>US Soil Association standard 50.5.3</ref> |
