1-Oleoyl-2-hydroxy-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine(CAT: I040356) (also known as Lyso-PE 18:1) is a lysophospholipid composed of a single oleoyl (C18:1) chain esterified at the sn-1 position of glycerol, with a phosphoethanolamine headgroup. It plays a critical role in membrane biology, cell signaling, and lipid metabolism. Frequently used in biophysical studies and lipidomics, this molecule serves as a model substrate in phospholipase activity assays and membrane interaction research. Its amphipathic nature and ability to incorporate into lipid bilayers make it a valuable tool for investigating lipid-protein interactions, endocytosis, and inflammatory responses in cellular and in vitro systems within both physiological and pathological contexts.
