Egg PC A84051 (Previously 840051) L-α-phosphatidylcholine (Egg, Chicken)

Egg PC, L-α-phosphatidylcholine, is an essential phospholipid derived from chicken eggs and is a crucial lipid component used extensively in biophysical and biochemical research. It is made by the CDP-choline (cytidine diphosphocholine) pathway in the liver. Additionally, egg PC is characterized by a choline headgroup, a phosphate group, glycerol, and two fatty acid chains. Its composition ensures the membrane remains fluid and stable, making it indispensable in lipid metabolism and cell signaling. As a major structural phospholipid in the brain, it is mainly found in gray matter.
