Notes: 1-Oleoyl-2-palmitoyl-sn-glycero-3-PC (1,2-OPPC) is a phospholipid containing oleic acid (Item No. 90260) and palmitic acid (Item No. 10006627) at the sn-1 and sn-2 positions, respectively, that is found in biological membranes.{46080} It can be used in the generation of liposomes and other artificial membranes.{46081,46082,46083} Artificial membranes containing 1,2-OPPC have been used to study S. aureus α-toxin assembly and the effects of phytol on membranes, as well as for the characterization of phospholipase A2.
