General description

24:0 PC (1,2-dilignoceroyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) is a long-chain diacyl phospholipid. It consists of C24 saturated hydrocarbon chains.
The list of Phosphatidylcholine products offered by Avanti is designed to provide compounds having a variety of physical properties. Products available include short chain (C3-C8 are water soluble and hygroscopic), saturated, multi-unsaturated and mixed acid PC′s. All of the products are purified by HPLC, and special precautions are taken to protect the products for oxidization and hydrolysis.

Application

24:0 PC (1,2-dilignoceroyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) may be used:
  • in both short-chain micelles and longer-chain oriented multilayers and in Langmuir monolayers for structural studies of the human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) accessory protein
  • to compare cohesion/to study the effects of lipid cohesion on the thermally induced revaporization and dissolution of microbubble condensed droplets (MCDs)
  • to study its effects on non-amyloidogenic processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP) and to study the effects of the its carbon chain length on α-secretase activity

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylcholines (PCs) serve as a major source for eicosanoids.

Phosphatidylcholine transfer protein (PC-TP) is a highly specific soluble lipid binding protein that transfers phosphatidylcholine between membranes in vitro. PC-TP is a member of the steroidogenic acute regulatory protein-related transfer (START) domain superfamily. Although its biochemical properties and structure are

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is characterized by extracellular accumulation of amyloid-β peptide (Aβ), generated by proteolytic processing of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) by β- and γ-secretase. Aβ generation is inhibited when the initial ectodomain shedding is caused by α-secretase, cleaving
