DLPS, also known as 1,2-dilauroyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-L-serine, is an anionic phospholipid with lauric acid tails (12:0) and contains a carboxylic acid (COOH) and amine (NH2) in their head group. It has been used in the preparation of lipid-mixing vesicles, liposome, or artificial membrane. Due to the medium size of fatty acid chain, DLPS is used to form thinner membranes/walls.
