General description

Phosphatidylcholine (PC) is a common phospholipid found in eukaryotes and a prime metabolite of glycerolipid metabolism. It is a vital component of the mucosal layer of the colon. NBD PC is a fluorescently labeled lipid with 7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl (NBD) attached to phosphatidylcholine.

Application

16:0-12:0 NBD PC has been used as a fluorescent marker to study the adsorption of hyaluronan (HA) onto a 1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DPPC) bilayer deposited on a silica surface by fluorescent microscopy. It may also be used:
  • in the microfluidic chip-based technology to demonstrate separation of fluorophore-labeled phospholipids and to monitor enzyme activities of lipid-modifying enzymes
  • as a fluorophore for DPPC in fluorescence recovery experiments
  • as a substrate to test scramblase activity

Biochem/physiol Actions

7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl phosphatidylcholine (NBD PC) is useful in the study of cellular processes as it functions as a fluorescent analog in lipid membranes and phospholipid phase transitions.
