Chemical Properties

storage temp.

-20°C

Uses

24:0 PC (1,2-dilignoceroyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) may be used:

in both short-chain micelles and longer-chain oriented multilayers and in Langmuir monolayers for structural studies of the human immunodeficiency virus 1 (HIV-1) accessory protein
to compare cohesion/to study the effects of lipid cohesion on the thermally induced revaporization and dissolution of microbubble condensed droplets (MCDs)
to study its effects on non-amyloidogenic processing of amyloid precursor protein (APP) and to study the effects of the its carbon chain length on α-secretase activity

Uses

24:0 PC (1,2-dilignoceroyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) may be used:

in short-chain micelles, longer-chain oriented multilayers and in Langmuir monolayers for structural studies
as an acyl chain lipid in microbubble condensed droplets (MCDs) and characterization studies
in phosphatidylcholine bilayer preparation for Raman spectroscopy studies

General Description

24:0 PC (1,2-dilignoceroyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine) is a long-chain diacyl phospholipid. It consists of C24 saturated hydrocarbon chains.

Biochem/physiol Actions
