General description

DOCP is a zwitterionic /negatively charged lipid. It possess an inverse headgroup This synthetic molecule has stronger affinity than 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-L-serine (DOPS).
Inverse-phosphocholine lipids, a remix of a common phospholipid, contain headgroups with an inverted charge orientation relative to phosphocholine (PC) lipids. The iPC lipid headgroup has a quaternary amine adjacent to the bilayer interface and a phosphate that extends into the aqueous phase. Therefore iPC lipids afford a unique opportunity to investigate the biophysical and bioactivity-related ramifications of a charge inversion at the bilayer surface.

Application

DOCP is suitable for use in the preparation of large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs) and in the preparation of liposomes.
