| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Uses]
4ME 16:0 PC is suitable for use:
- to study its phase behaviour and its interactions with the representative antimicrobial peptide PGLa from Xenopus laevis (peptidyl-glycylleucine-carboxyamide
- to improve the mechanical stability of planar lipid bilayer membrane
- to prepare giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs)
| [Biological Activity]
4ME 16:0 PC/DPhPC (1,2-diphytanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine can be used as a bilayer mimic for electrophysiological measurements. It is stable under mechanical stress but the ester linkages are liable to hydrolysis under acidic or alkaline conditions. |
