General description

16:0-18:0 (6-7BR) PC (1-palmitoyl-2-(6,7-dibromo) stearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) is a brominated-PC lipid.

Application

16:0-18:0 (6-7BR) PC (1-palmitoyl-2-(6,7-dibromo) stearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) may be used:
  • to prepare large unilamellar liposomes for parallax analysis
  • in phospholipid vesicle preparation for tryptophan (Trp) penetration depth experiments
  • to study the effect of bromination at different positions along the fatty acid chains

Apolipoproteins are essential human proteins for lipid metabolism. Together with phospholipids, they constitute lipoproteins, nm to μm sized particles responsible for transporting cholesterol and triglycerides throughout the body. To investigate specific protein-lipid interactions, we produced and characterized three single-Trp containing
