Phytol is a diterpene alcohol that plays a crucial role in the synthesis of Vitamin E and Vitamin K1. It is a component of chlorophyll and is therefore present in all plants and contributes to their green color. In human and animal metabolism, phytol is converted into phytanic acid, a fatty acid that can have detrimental effects if accumulated at high levels. Therefore, monitoring the levels of phytol and its metabolites can provide important insights into several metabolic disorders.

Sulfur is an essential element for all living organisms, playing a pivotal role in various cellular functions. It is a key component of amino acids such as cysteine and methionine, vitamins like biotin and thiamine, and numerous coenzymes and metabolic intermediates. The sulfur metabolic pathway begins with the uptake of sulfate from the environment, followed by its reduction to sulfide through the action of enzymes such as ATP sulfurylase, APS reductase, and sulfite reductase.
-
Energy metabolism is a fundamental biological process that involves the conversion of nutrients into energy, which is essential for maintaining cellular functions, growth, and overall homeostasis. This complex network of biochemical reactions includes glycolysis, the tricarboxylic acid (TCA) cycle, oxidative phosphorylation, and various anaplerotic and cataplerotic reactions.
