General description
4ME 16:0 Diether DG or 1,2-di-O-phytanyl-sn-glycerol is an archaeal lipid having two phytane chains attached to the sn-1 and sn-2 positions of the glycerol backbone by ether bonds. It is present as a component of the cell membrane in methanogen microorganisms.
Application
4ME 16:0 Diether DG or 1,2-di-O-phytanyl-sn-glycerol is suitable for use as an internal standard in:
- the liquid chromatography mass spectrometric (LC–MS) analysis of lipids by multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) transitions
- high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) to quantify diacylglycerol (DAG/DG)
- tandem mass spectrometric (MS/MS) analysis to quantify DAG
Biochem/physiol Actions
Ether linked lipids are antioxidant and essential for cell differentiation and cellular signaling.
