12:0 PG

Application

12:0 PG (1,2-dilauroyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-(1′-rac-glycerol)) has been used in monomolecular films as representative lipid component of eukaryotic membranes to study the generality of the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID)-related effect. It may also be used:in the preparation of liposomes for PagP folding assaysas a component in pyrene labeleld liposomesto construct liposome/lipid vesicle

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylglycerol (PG) is known to participate in photosynthesis.

General description

Phosphatidylglycerol (PG) is one of the most important lipid, found in Gram-positive bacteria. It has odd-numbered branched-chain fatty acids as acyl chains. This phospholipid is ubiquitously present in the membranes of several organisms. 12:0 PG (1,2-dilauroyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-(1′-rac-glycerol)/DLPG) is an anionic phospholipid. It is an anionic analogue of the zwitterionic phospholipid, dilauroyl phosphatidylcholine (DLPC).
