Phosphatidylethanolamines (PEs) are phospholipids found in biological membranes that serve both structural and functional roles. Different types of PEs are commonly used in the generation of micelles, liposomes, and other types of artificial membranes. 1-Palmitoyl-3-oleoyl-sn-glycero-2-PE is a phospholipid containing palmitic acid inserted at the sn-1 position, oleic acid at the sn-3 position, and PE at the sn-2 site.
