Application

16:0-12:0 NBD PE has been used in lipid extraction assay and in vitro phospholipid fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) assays. It is suitable for the determination of enzyme substrate specificity of lipoteichoic acid synthase (LtaS).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphoethanolamine (PE) plays a vital role in the prevention of tumor proliferation. N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl) phosphoethanolamine (NBD PE) monitors the Red edge excitation shift (REES) phenomenon with the unique motional and dielectric properties it possesses.

General description

N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl) phosphoethanolamine (NBD PE) is a fluorescent probe localized at the membrane interface. It possess fluorescent NBD label attached to the headgroup of phosphatidylethanolamine (PE). PE is the parent compound for phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine synthesis and is mostly enriched in brain.
