Lipid Classification Scheme

The LIPID MAPS Lipid Classification Scheme
is comprised of eight categories containing distinct classes and subclasses of molecules, chemically based and driven by the distinct hydrophobic and hydrophilic elements that compose the lipid.

You can view the complete list of LIPID MAPS lipids, organized by category, class, and subclass, with links to corresponding Wikipedia pages (where available). You can also drill down from lipid category to the LMSD record for an individual lipid, where you will find annotations, crosslinks to external databases, and a structure image, with links to structure viewing tools.
