General description

N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl) phosphoethanolamine (NBD PE) is a fluorescent probe which contains NBD attached to the headgroup of phosphatidylethanolamine and localized at the membrane interface. Phosphoethanolamine is the second most abundant, metabolically related aminophospholipid. It is mostly enriched in brain.

Application

16:0-06:0 NBD PE is suitable for the determination of enzyme substrate specificity of lipoteichoic acid synthase (LtaS).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphoethanolamine (PE) acts as a substrate for several phospholipids of the cell membrane. N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl) phosphoethanolamine (NBD PE) aids in monitoring the Red edge excitation shift (REES) effects with its unique motional and dielectric properties.

Lipoteichoic acid (LTA) is an important cell wall polymer in Gram-positive bacteria. The enzyme responsible for polyglycerolphosphate LTA synthesis is LtaS, first described in Staphylococcus aureus. Four LtaS orthologues, LtaS(BS) , YfnI, YqgS and YvgJ, are present in Bacillus subtilis.

Lipoteichoic acid (LTA) is an important cell wall component of Gram-positive bacteria. The key enzyme responsible for polyglycerolphosphate lipoteichoic acid synthesis in the Gram-positive pathogen Staphylococcus aureus is the membrane-embedded lipoteichoic acid synthase enzyme, LtaS. It is presumed that LtaS
