General description

Phosphatidylethanolamine is an aminophospholipid. It is present in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. Phosphatidylethanolamine is one of the most abundant glycerophospholipids in the biological membranes. It is found in nervous tissue.

Application

C18(Plasm)-18:1 PE has been used as a lipid standard in the optimization of the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylethanolamine forms pure lipid structures, which regulate membrane fluidity in eukaryotic cells. Phosphatidylethanolamine plays a major role in autophagy, cell division and protein folding. It functions as a precursor for the synthesis of various protein modifications. Phosphatidylethanolamine acts as an intermediate for the synthesis of glycerophospholipid classes.

Prions containing misfolded prion protein (PrP(Sc)) can be formed with cofactor molecules using the technique of serial protein misfolding cyclic amplification. However, it remains unknown whether cofactors materially participate in maintaining prion conformation and infectious properties. Here we show that

Ethanolamine plasmalogen (EtnPLA) is a conical-shaped ether lipid and an essential component of neurological membranes. Low stability against oxidation limits its study in experiments. The concentration of EtnPLA in the bilayer varies depending on cell type and disease progression. Here

Misfolding of the prion protein (PrP) plays a central role in the pathogenesis of infectious, sporadic, and inherited prion diseases. Here we use a chemically defined prion propagation system to study misfolding of the pathogenic PrP mutant D177N in vitro.

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