General description

Phosphatidic acid is obtained from phosphatidylcholine with the help of phospholipase D.

Application

3-sn-Phosphatidic acid sodium salt from egg yolk lecithin
  • in the reaction mixture for CDS (cytidine triphosphate:phosphatidate cytidyltransferase) assay and reference lipid for thin layer chromatography (TLC)
  • as a standard to compare the generated radiolabeled phosphatidic acid (PA)
  • to examine its effects on At-Rac2–associated kinase activity

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidic acid might serve as a modulator of phagocyte respiratory burst. It also acts as a precursor of diacylglycerol, phosphatidic acid and lysophosphatidic acid.

Discover Bioactive Small Molecules for Cyclic Nucleotides

Cyclic nucleotides, including cyclic AMP (cAMP), cyclic GMP (cGMP) and cyclic ADP-ribose, have been extensively studied as second messengers of intracellular events initiated by activation of GPCRs. cAMP modifies cell function in all eukaryotic cells, principally through the activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), but also through cAMP-gated ion channels and guanine nucleotide exchange factors directly activated by cAMP.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
