General description

Phosphatidylserine (PS), an aminophospholipid is negatively charged and accounts for 2–10% of total cellular lipid. It is located in the membrane leaflets.

Application

12:0 PS may be used:
  • in the preparation of large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs)
  • as a standard to spike replicas of extracted lipid droplets and calibration curve generation for lipidomic analysis
  • to study its effects on α-secretase activity

Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylserine (PS) plays a key role in protein kinase C pathways. It also helps in confining the intracellular proteins to membrane leaflets of cytosol.

Crystalline vesicles are promising nanomaterials due to their mechanical stability in various environments. To control their fabrication, it is essential to understand the effects of different experimental conditions on crystallization. Here we perform atomistic molecular dynamics simulations of anionic lipid

The free energy of unfolding of a membrane protein from lipids into water (ΔG(o)(w,l)) describes its equilibrium thermodynamic stability. Knowing this parameter gives insight into a membrane protein's sequence-structure-energy relationships. However, there are few measures of membrane protein stability because
