General description

06:0 Diether PC (phosphocholine) is a glycerophospholipid having two hexane chains attached to the sn-1 and sn-2 positions of the glycerol backbone by ether bonds. It has choline as the alcohol moiety, attached to the phosphate group.

Application

06:0 Diether PC or 1,2-di-O-hexyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine might be used:
  • in bicelle media to measure the H—C one-bond residual dipolar couplings for trisaccharides, Lewis X (Lex) and Lewis A (Lea) methyl glycosides using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) residual dipolar couplings
  • to compose isotropically tumbling small bicelles, to study its size and morphology by 31P NMR and atomic force microscopy (AFM)
  • in bicelle preparation for NMR studies

Biochem/physiol Actions

06:0 Diether PC (phosphocholine) is useful for bicelles preparation. Bicelles can be integrated into standard crystallization protocols and in contrast to micelles, bicelles maintain the protein in a more native bilayer environment allowing proteins to be captured in a more biologically relevant orientation. Incorporating 06:0 Diether PC in bicelles results in bicelles similar to conventional phospholipid bicelles but with improved chemical stability.
