dolichol

[(Science: chemical) Terpenoids with 13-24 isoprene units and a terminal phosphorylated hydroxyl group. function as transmembrane carriers for glycosyl units in the biosynthesis of glycoproteins and glycolipids.

[1. Polyisoprenes in which the terminal member is saturated and oxidized to an alcohol, usually phosphorylated and often glycosylated; found in endoplasmic reticulum, but not in mitochondrial or plasma membranes; urinary levels are elevated in disorders exhibiting abnormal skin, rectal, or brain profiles in electron microscopy of biopsies; derived from four or more linked isoprene units.
