PIP Strips are 2 x 6 cm hydrophobic membranes that have been spotted with 100 pmol of all eight phosphoinositides and seven other biological important lipids. They are used to determine how your protein of interest interacts with one or more of these lipids in a simple protein-lipid overlay assay. Bound protein is then detected by an antibody against the protein or affinity tag. \n \nPIP Strips contain the following lipids at 100 pmol per spot: (click picture above for exact layout) \n \nLysophosphatidic acid (LPA) \nLysophosphocholine (LPC) \nPhosphatidylinositol (PtdIns) \nPhosphatidylinositol (3)-phosphate (PtdIns(3)P) \nPhosphatidylinositol (4)-phosphate (PtdIns(4)P) \nPhosphatidylinositol (5)-phosphate (PtdIns(5)P) \nPhosphatidylethanolamine (PE) \nPhosphatidylcholine (PC) \nSphingosine 1-Phosphate (S1P) \nPhosphatidylinositol (3,4)-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4)P2 ) \nPhosphatidylinositol (3,5)-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,5)P2) \nPhosphatidylinositol (4,5)-bisphosphate (PtdIns(4,5)P2) \nPhosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) \nPhosphatidic acid (PA) \nPhosphatidylserine (PS) \nEach 10-pack of PIP Strips includes a free vial of the PI(4,5)P2 specific binding protein for use as a positive control.
