Description

Application

1,2-Dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DOPE) forms heterogenous liposomes with N-[1-(2,3-dioleoyloxy)propyl]-N,N,N-trimethylammonium methylsulfate (DOTAP), which are used as delivery vehicles for therapeutic agents .

Biochem/physiol Actions

DOPE in mixed membranes have been found to decrease fluorescence lifetime and increase acyl-chain order.[1] DOPE is an essential component of cationic liposomes designed to deliver DNA into gliosarcoma[2] and kidney[3] cell lines (gene therapy).

Packaging

Bottomless glass bottle. Contents are inside inserted fused cone.
