General description

Phosphoethanolamine is a precursor to phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine. 2,4-dinitrophenol (DNP) is a synthetic lipid-soluble compound which transports ions across the bioenergetic membranes.

Application

16:0 DNP PE may be used:
  • to generate lipid aggregates/lipid micelles
  • in the preparation of liposomes
  • as an internal standard to spike the tissue samples for the quantification of N-acylphosphatidylethanolamine (NAPE)
  • in lipid solution as a receptor site to prepare bilayer lipid membranes (BLMs)

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphoethanolamine participates in phospholipid metabolism. It has the ability to repress tumour growth both in vitro and in vivo.
