General description

4ME 16:0 PS (1,2-diphytanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-L-serine) is a sodium salt of a fatty acid modified lipid.

Application

4ME 16:0 PS (1,2-diphytanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-L-serine (sodium salt)) may be used as a component in planar lipid bilayer and in asymmetrical leaflets to study the translocation of β-galactosidase (β-gal) across an asymmetric bilayer. It may be used as an internal standard in electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) analysis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Diphytanoyl lipids are mainly used in electrophysiological experiments.

Solid supported membranes (SSMs) are usually formed by an hybrid octadecanethiol/phosphatidylcholine (PC) bilayer supported by a gold electrode. Recently, it was shown that phosphatidylserine (PS) in place of PC can promote a more effective accumulation of lipid vesicles on the

All cells in all domains of life possess a cytoskeleton that provides mechanical resistance to deformation and general stability to the plasma membrane. Here, we utilize a two-dimensional scaffolding created by actin filaments to convey mechanical support upon relatively fragile

Cholesterol and ether lipids are ubiquitous in mammalian cell membranes, and their interactions are crucial in ether lipid mediated cholesterol trafficking. We report on cholesterol's molecular interactions with ether lipids as determined using a combination of small-angle neutron and X-ray

Phosphatidylserine (PS) is the most abundant negatively charged phospholipid in eukaryotic membranes. PS directs the binding of proteins that bear C2 or gamma-carboxyglutamic domains and contributes to the electrostatic association of polycationic ligands with cellular membranes.
