General description

4ME 16:0 PS (1,2-diphytanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-L-serine) is a sodium salt of a fatty acid modified lipid.

Application

4ME 16:0 PS (1,2-diphytanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-L-serine (sodium salt)) may be used as a component in planar lipid bilayer and in asymmetrical leaflets to study the translocation of β-galactosidase (β-gal) across an asymmetric bilayer. It may be used as an internal standard in electrospray ionization-mass spectrometry (ESI-MS/MS) analysis.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Diphytanoyl lipids are mainly used in electrophysiological experiments.

Penetratin is a short, basic cell-penetrating peptide able to induce cellular uptake of a vast variety of large, hydrophilic cargos. We have reassessed the highly controversial issue of direct permeation of the strongly cationic peptide across negatively charged lipid membranes.

The branched chains in diphytanoyl lipids provide membranes with unique properties, such as high chemical/physical stability, low water permeability, and no gel-to-fluid phase transition at ambient temperature. Synthetic diphytanoyl phospholipids are often used as model membranes for electrophysiological experiments. To
