CaGlycerophospholipids, also known as phospholipids (PLs), are polar lipids that structurally consist of a ONO-4059MedChemExpress GS-4059 glycerol molecule linked to two FAs by an ester bond and a phosphate group that can bind 3.3. Phospholipids a polar molecule. This AZD3759 side effects portion ofalso known as phospholipids (PLs), are polar lipids The structurally Glycerophospholipids, the PL molecule is called the head group. that composition of the head group is primordial in the classification of PLs into distinct classes. For example, if the head group consist of a glycerol molecule linked to two FAs by an ester bond and a phosphate group that can is a serine,bind a polar molecule. This portion of the PL molecule is called the head group. The composition of Each class then the PL belongs to the PS class. Other classes include PC, PE, PG (Figure 4). the head group is primordial in the classification of PLs into distinct classes. For example, if the head of PL includes a large number of molecular species due to the presence of different combinations of group is a serine, then the PL belongs to the PS class. Other classes include PC, PE, PG (Figure 4). fatty acyl chains that can includes a large number of molecular species due to the presence profile encompasses Each class of PL be linked to glycerol moiety. Overall, the phospholipid of different a great number of molecular species that can be structurally different and its quantities can vary with combinations of fatty acyl chains that can be linked to glycerol moiety.

Drugs 2016, 14,8 ofThe major PL classes in marine macrophytes are PC, PG and PE, PG being the only PL class located in significant amounts in thylakoid membranes [59]. The other PLs are located in extra-chloroplast membranes. Lipid components of living cell membranes can be adjusted to physiological and environment conditions. PC is the most abundant class of PL in halophytes, usually containing more than 70 of total PLs; for comparison purposes, one can consider that the percentage of PC often observed in higher plants is solely 45 ?0 of total PLs [34]. Green macroalgae display higher amounts of PG, which range between 20 and 47 of total PLs, while in red macroalgae PC is the dominant class (60 of the total PL content) [60].
