N-[1-(2,3-DIOLEYLOXY)PROPYL]-N,N,N-TRIMETHYLAMMONIUM CHLORIDE

DOTAP chloride (1,2-Dioleoyl-3-trimethylammonium-propane chloride) is a potent cationic lipid widely used as a liposomal transfection reagent. DOTAP is also a strong activator of the innate immune system in animal cells and could serve as a potential candidate for the study of elicitors of plant immunity.

DOTAP, 1,2-Dioleoyl-3-trimethylammonium propane is a di-chain, or gemini, cationic surfactant. DOTAP has been used for in vitro and in vivo nucleic acid and protein delivery.

1,2-dioleoyloxy-3-(trimethylammonium)propane (DOTAP) chloride has been used for the preparation of cationic liposome and liposome-DNA complex. It has also been used to assess tumor necrosis factor α (TNF- α) production.

Small unilamellar liposomes containing DOTMA interact spontaneously with DNA to form lipid-DNA complexes with 100% entrapment of DNA. Facilitates fusion of the complex with the plasma membrane of tissue culture cells, resulting in both uptake and

18:1 TAP (DOTAP) is a cationic lipid structure, used for in vitro and in vivo nucleic acid and protein delivery. The lipid composition and cell type affects the transfection potential of DOTAP(1,2-dioleoyl-3-trimethylammonium-propane). 18:1 TAP (DOTAP) mediates gene knockdown technique in hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs).
