:

Phosphatidylethanolamines, egg

Description:
Phosphatidylethanolamines (PEs), particularly those derived from egg sources, are a class of phospholipids characterized by their glycerol backbone, two fatty acid chains, and a phosphate group linked to an ethanolamine head group. The substance identified by the CAS number 97281-50-0 is a specific type of phosphatidylethanolamine that is commonly found in biological membranes, particularly in egg yolk. These lipids play a crucial role in membrane structure and function, contributing to membrane fluidity and integrity. They are also involved in various cellular processes, including cell signaling and apoptosis. Phosphatidylethanolamines are amphipathic molecules, possessing both hydrophilic and hydrophobic properties, which facilitate their incorporation into lipid bilayers. Additionally, they can undergo various biochemical modifications, influencing their biological activity. Due to their importance in cell biology, they are often studied in the context of membrane dynamics, lipid metabolism, and their potential therapeutic applications in diseases related to membrane dysfunction.
