Phosphotidylethanolamines are typically found only in prokaryotic membranes. Phosphatidylcholines are found in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells.

What are some of the lipids found in a Cell membrane?

Some of the lipids found in a cell membrane include phospholipids (such as phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine), glycolipids, and cholesterol. These lipids play a crucial role in maintaining the structure and function of the cell membrane.


What is molecular weight for phosphatidylcholine?

The molecular weight of phosphatidylcholine, a common phospholipid found in cell membranes, is approximately 732 g/mol.


What are the four major phospholipids present in the plasma membrane of mammalian cells?

The four major phospholipids present in plasma membrane of mammalian cells are: 1. Phosphatidylcholine 2. Phosphatidylethanolamine 3. Phosphatidylserine 4. Sphingomyelin. For more details click on the link below.


How does phosphatidylcholine differ from tristearin?

Phosphatidylcholine is a phospholipid consisting of a glycerol backbone, two fatty acids, a phosphate group, and a choline molecule, often found in cell membranes. Tristearin is a triglyceride composed of three stearic acid molecules attached to a glycerol backbone, commonly found in animal fats. Phosphatidylcholine is amphipathic and serves as a structural component of cell membranes, while tristearin is a neutral lipid used for energy storage.


What keeps the membrane fluid in the animal cell?

I believe it is phospholipids, but it might be cholesterol. Either one of those two.The substance that is responsible for refluidizing and reflexiblizing the cell membrane is a phospholipid called DLPC or di-linear phosphatidylcholine. DLPC is found in small amounts in polyunsaturated Phosphatidylcholine taken from soy.DLPC in polyunsaturated Phosphatidylcholine may only be effective when given intravenously because other routes of administration diminish absorption @50 percent.Lipostabil-N and Essentialle has been in Europe since the 1950's for atherosclerosis, dyslipidemia, as a liver protectant, to treat any liver diseases and to prevent and treat fat emboli. As of 2011, Lipostabil-N and Essentialle ampules are no longer marketable for formal reasons in connection with the reregistration procedure.All disease are related to membrane damages. Brain disorders, kidney, liver disease, atherosclerosis , dyslipidemia, and GI inflammation. In all these cases there is adisturbance of membrane and surfactants. When you give ppc iv we not only repair these damages but we also improve the membrane structure and functioning. Not only damages are repaired but there is an curing effect with an improved functioning of membrane bound proteins, membrane bound enzymes and receptors.


Does RNA contain thymine, or is it exclusively found in DNA?

RNA does not contain thymine; thymine is exclusively found in DNA.

Surprisingly, membrane proteins are found in or attached to the membrane.


Can fjords only be found in Norway?

No not exclusively.


What is another lipid found in the cell membrane?

Another lipid found in the cell membrane is cholesterol.


Where can cholesterol be found in the cell membrane?

Cholesterol can be found in the cell membrane, specifically in the lipid bilayer, where it helps maintain the membrane's structure and fluidity.

Where is the membrane found?

Assuming by nuclear membrane, you mean the membrane that surrounds the nucleus of cells, then nuclear membrane are found keeping the tidbits of cell nuclei together in the middle of the cytoplasm of the cell.
