16:0-06:0 NBD PS

Uses

16:0-06:0 NBD PS or 1-palmitoyl-2-{6-[(7-nitro-2-1,3-benzoxadiazol-4-yl)amino]hexanoyl}-sn-glycero-3-phosphoserine (ammonium salt) is suitable to measure the enzyme specificity of lipoteichoic acid (LTA) synthase (LtaS) and in liposomes to determine the role of phospholipid scramblase 1 (PLSCR1) in phospholipid scrambling.
