Description
General description
Phosphoserine (PS) is present in the intracellular membranes and grey matter, and isenriched in the cytosolic leaflet of plasma membrane. NBD PS is a fluorescently labelled lipid with 7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl (NBD) at the headgroup of PS.
Application
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) may be used in the liposome preparation for in vitro assay of the phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) production by determining the phosphatidylserine decarboxylase 1 (Psd1p) activity.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Phosphatidylserine (PS) regulates numerous enzymes and structural components maintains the nerve cell membrane and myelin sheath.
