Structural formula: {0} (CAS {1})

Ascr#5 is an -hydroxy fatty acid ascaroside obtained by formal condensation of the alcoholic hydroxy group of 3-hydroxypropanoic acid with ascarylopyranose (the alpha anomer). A major component of the dauer pheromone of the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans, it synergises with ascr#2 and ascr#3 as a population-density signal to promote entry into an alternate larval stage, the nonfeeding and highly persistent dauer diapause. It has a role as a pheromone and a Caenorhabditis elegans metabolite. It is a monocarboxylic acid and an omega-hydroxy fatty acid ascaroside. It is functionally related to a 3-hydroxypropionic acid. It is a conjugate acid of an ascr#5(1-).
