About the structure and biological function of C10T

Structure. Monoterpenes (C10 isoprenoids, C10T) belong to the group of isoprenoids within the prenol lipids category. Their structure is based on a linear chain or rings of two isoprene units, the five-carbon building block of prenol lipids. C10Ts may further encompass double bonds and a variety of substituents.

Function. Monoterpenes are a diverse class of lipids. The C10T geranyl-pyrophosphate is an intermediate in the mevalonate pathway leading to the biosynthesis of cholesterol. Many monoterpenes are found in essential oils extracted from plants, where they contribute to flavor, aroma, attraction of pollinators, and defence mechanism against vermin. As such, they are also used in the food industry as food additives.
