C6 NBD Ceramide (d18:1/6:0)

C6 NBD ceramide is a biologically active fluorescent analog of short chain, membrane-permeable ceramides. It is as effective as C6 ceramide in the inhibition of viral glycoprotein transport through the Golgi. C6 NBD ceramide has been used as a fluorescent substrate for the activity of UDP-glucose:ceramide glucosyltransferase and to demonstrate the translocation of glucocerebroside and sphingomyelin from the Golgi to the plasma membrane.Formal Name: N-[7-(4-nitrobenzo-2-oxa-1,3-diazole)]-6-aminocaproyl-D-erythro-sphingosine.
