Application

16:0 PE MCC (1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-[4-(p-maleimidomethyl)cyclohexane-carboxamide]) may been used in functionalized liposome preparation for drug delivery. It may also be used in liposome preparation for testing drug delivery functionality and as a component in microbubble dispersions.

Biochem/physiol Actions

1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-[4-(p-maleimidomethyl)cyclohexane-carboxamide](DPPE-MCC) via the maleimide group enables covalent attachment in functionalized liposomes and is useful in peptide transport studies.

General description

1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine-N-[4-(p-maleimidomethyl)cyclohexane-carboxamide] (16:0 PE MCC) is a lipid consisting of phosphoethanolamine linked to two palmitic acid through its phosphate group and to a maleimide group by its amino group. It is a maleimide-functionalized lipid.
