Product Description
Substrate for the general assay of phospholipases, except Ca2+-dependent cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2). PLA2 hydrolyzes the sn-2 position of the phospholipid thiol groups. The released thiol can be estimated colorimetrically using Ellman's reagent (DTNB, Prod. No. ALX-400-034). For an assay kit for secretory PLA2 (sPLA2) based on this substrate see Prod. No. ALX-850-007. For a substrate for cPLA2 see Arachidonoyl Thio-PC (Prod. No. ALX-300-141).

General Information
BACKGROUND/TECHNICAL INFORMATION To change the solvent, evaporate the ethanol under a gentle stream of nitrogen and immediately add the solvent of choice. Avoid dissolving 1,2-bis(Heptanoylthio)glycerophosphocholine in basic solutions, since base treatment promotes hydrolysis of the thioester. Triton X-100 will enhance the solubility significantly. The critical micellar concentration of 1,2-bis(Heptanoylthio)glycerophosphocholine 0.17mM in 0.2M Tris-maleate buffer, pH 7.4.
