(S,R)-Bis(monomyristoylglycero)phosphate (ammonium)

(S,R)-Bis(monomyristoylglycero)phosphate ammonium actively contributes to cargo sorting by promoting the degradation and sorting of lipids, and it plays a critical role in the sorting of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) within acidic organelles. This phospholipid features two phosphate-linked glycerol molecules arranged in a unique sn-1 glycerophospho-sn-1′ glycerol stereoconformation, with each glycerol molecule esterified to a myristic acid. Typically, it is found in the intraluminal vesicles (ILVs) of late endosomes and lysosomes.
