Synthesis and characterization of a highly fluorescent peptidyl-phosphatidylethanolamine.

The synthesis of a fluorescent lipid for use in studies of immune recognition of model membranes is described. The molecule has the basic structure HAPTEN-SPACER-LIPID, where fluorescein is the hapten, an oligopeptide (triglycine) is the spacer, and dipalmitoylphosphatidylethanolamine (DPPE) is the...
