2-hydroxy Stearic acid is a hydroxylated fatty acid methyl ester that broadens phase transition in dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) lipid membranes. It has been used in the synthesis of lipid-nucleotide conjugate anti-HIV agents to increase phosphodiester bond cleavage and the amount of liberated intracellular nucleotides. [Matreya, LLC. Catalog No. 1708]

Methyl (+/-)-2-hydroxystearateis a hydroxylated fatty acid methyl ester that broadens phase transitions in dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) lipid membranes. It has been used in the synthesis of lipid-nucleotide conjugated anti-HIV agents to increase the cleavage of phosphodiester bonds and the number of released intracellular nucleotides.
