General description

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) is the most abundant phospholipid in eukaryotes. It is the prime metabolite of glycerolipid metabolism and a vital component of the mucosal layer of the colon. NBD PC has 7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl (NBD) moiety attached to phosphatidylcholine.

Application

14:0-12:0 NBD PC has been used to prepare fluorescently labeled 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DMPC) unilamellar vesicles (LUVs) for the measurement lipid mass distribution. It may also be used to determine in vitro Phospholipase D (PLD) activity.

Biochem/physiol Actions

7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl phosphatidylcholine (NBD PC) functions as fluorescent probe involved in the study of the biological membranes in cellular processes. It is a strong bilayer-forming lipid.

We took advantage of the microflow hydrodynamics in the evaporation of sessile droplets to increase the height uniformity of thin lipid films for the subsequent electroformation of defect-free giant unilamellar vesicles (GUV). By serially casting progressively larger liposome suspension droplets

Phospholipase D (PLD) plays an important role in plants, including responses to abiotic as well as biotic stresses. A survey of the rice (Oryza sativa) genome database indicated the presence of 17 PLD genes in the genome, among which OsPLDalpha1
