Application

18:1-06:0 NBD PE may be used as a component of liposome in cross-linking experiment and to determine M13 coat protein selectivity toward phospholipids headgroups.

Biochem/physiol Actions

N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl) phosphoethanolamine (NBD PE) plays a key role as a fluorescent analog in the studies of organization and dynamics of membranes. NBD PE contributes in monitoring Red edge excitation shift (REES) effects 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 localized at the membrane interface. Fluorescent NBD label is covalently linked to the headgroup of phosphatidylethanolamine. Phosphoethanolamine is mostly present in brain and is the second most abundant, metabolically related aminophospholipid.
