Phosphatidylinositol (plant, soy) (sodium salt)

Phosphatidylinositols are glycerophospholipids that contain a glycerol backbone, two non-polar fatty acid tails, and a polar inositol head group. They are synthesized from cytidine diphosphate diacylglycerol (CPD-DAG) and myoinositol by phosphoinositol synthase and represent approximately 10% of total cellular phospholipids. Phosphatidylinositols can be phosphorylated on their inositol rings to produce phosphoinositides, which have been implicated in calcium regulation, vesicle trafficking, mitogenesis, cell survival, and rearrangement of actin. This product contains glucosylceramide molecular species with primarily C16:0, C22:0, and C24:0 fatty acyl chain lengths. As this product is derived from a natural source, there may be variations in the sphingoid backbone. [Matreya, LLC. Catalog No. 1336]CAS Number: 383907-36-6. Molecular Formula: C45H78O13P .
