General description

Phosphatidylserine (PS) is an acidic phospholipid, present in the membrane and plasma. It constitutes 2% to 20% of the total phospholipid mass. PS is abundant in the protein, myelin.

Application

16:0-18:2 PS or 1-palmitoyl-2-linoleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-L-serine (sodium salt) might be used in the preparation of giant unilamellar liposomes (GULs).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylserine (PS) maintains nerve cell membranes and myelin. It affects the catabolism and anabolism of neurotransmitters acetylcholine (ACh), norepinephrine, serotonin and dopamine.

Low gadolinium concentrations induce rapid gigaseal formation and cell adhesion to glass and plastic (polystyrene) substrates in the slime mutant of Neurospora crassa. Cellular adhesion is independent of an integrin-mediated mechanism, because pretreatment with the oligopeptide ARG-GLY-ASP-SER (RGDS) did not

Phosphatidylserine (PS) is the most abundant negatively charged phospholipid in eukaryotic membranes. PS directs the binding of proteins that bear C2 or gamma-carboxyglutamic domains and contributes to the electrostatic association of polycationic ligands with cellular membranes.
