18:1 DIETHER PC

Application

18:1 Diether PC or 1,2-di-O-(9Z-octadecenyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine might be used:to prepare diether PC (phosphocholine)-containing proteoliposomesto prepare lipid bilayer membrane, to study the influence of glutamic acid residues and pH on the properties of transmembrane helicesin large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs) to explore the differential interaction of pH (low) insertion peptide (pHLIP) with it by utilizing fluorescence and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopic approaches

Biochem/physiol Actions

Lipids prepared using 18:1 Diether PC (phosphocholine), are found to be more stable than the natural ester lipids under alkaline conditions.

General description

18:1 Diether PC (phosphocholine) is a class of glycerophospholipids that has two octadecene chains attached to the sn-1 and sn-2 positions of the glycerol backbone by ether bonds. It has choline as the alcohol moiety, attached to the phosphate group.
