1-Palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (CAT: R000354) is a phospholipid composed of a palmitoyl fatty acid (16:0) at the sn-1 position and an oleoyl fatty acid (18:1) at the sn-2 position, connected to a glycerol backbone through a phosphocholine headgroup. This phospholipid belongs to the phosphatidylcholine class, which is a major constituent of biological membranes. Its unique fatty acid composition contributes to the structural integrity and fluidity of cellular membranes. 1-Palmitoyl-2-oleoyl-sn-glycero-3-PC is often used in liposome production, allowing researchers to investigate the biophysical properties of lipid bilayers and their interactions with various molecules
