General description

N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl) phosphoethanolamine (NBD PE) is a fluorescently labelled lipid with NBD attached to phosphatidylethanolamine. It is localized at the membrane interface. Phosphoethanolamine is the second most abundant, metabolically related aminophospholipid and is mostly enriched in brain.

Application

18:1-06:0 NBD PE may be used to analyse the temporal fluorescent pattern of cholesterol-E- Nitrobenzoxadiazole (Chol-E-NBD).

Biochem/physiol Actions

N-(7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazol-4-yl) phosphoethanolamine (NBD PE) is used as a fluorescent analog in the studies of organization and dynamics of membranes. Phosphoethanolamine (PE) functions as a substrate for a number of phospholipids of the cell membrane.
