| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
ACe-1 is a modified ceramide with an azobenzene moiety to allow for optical control of the N-acyl chain. ACe-1 has been shown to enable the reversible switching of lipid domains in raft-mimicking supported bilayers. Research has shown that in the trans- configuration the ACes are in the liquid-ordered phase and in the cis- configuration the ACes are in the liquid disordered phase in lipid rafts. |
