General description

22:6 (cis) PC or 1,2-didocosahexaenoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine is an unsaturated glycerophospholipid, with substitution of two chains of docosahexaenic acid at sn-1 and sn-2 positions of the glycerol backbone, along with choline as a headgroup. It is an omega-3 lipid.

Application

22:6 (cis) PC or 1,2-didocosahexaenoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine might be used:
  • in liposomes, to study its effect on membrane vesiculation by dynamin and endophilin
  • in multi-lamellar vesicles (MLVs) to analyze its effect on the biophysical properties of lipid membranes and on its interaction with a fragment of the Aβ peptide
  • in lipid bilayers to study the influence of cholesterol on lateral segregation of saturated and unsaturated phospholipids

Saturated and unsaturated phospholipids (PLs) can segregate into lateral domains. The preference of cholesterol for saturated acyl chains over monounsaturated, and especially polyunsaturated ones, may also affect lateral segregation. Here we have studied how cholesterol influenced the lateral segregation of
