Application

16:1 PE has been used to assess the linearity of response of lipid classes. It has also been used as an internal standard for the determination of plasmenyl-PC and plasmenyl-PE of human heart mitochondria using a Bligh -Dyer extraction method.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylethanolamine forms pure lipid structures. It maintains membrane fluidity in eukaryotic cells. Phosphatidylethanolamine plays a critical role in autophagy, cell division and protein folding. It acts as a precursor for the synthesis of various protein modifications. Phosphatidylethanolamine functions as an intermediate for the synthesis of glycerophospholipid classes.

General description

Phosphatidylethanolamine is an aminophospholipid, which is found in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. It is one of the most abundant glycerophospholipids in biological membranes. Phosphatidylethanolamine is found in nervous tissue.
