DMTAP (1,2-dimyristoyl-3-trimethylammonium-propane chloride)

DMTAP chloride (1,2-dimyristoyl-3-trimethylammonium-propane chloride) is a saturated cationic lipid with applications in transfection and drug delivery. When combined with nucleic acids, this lipid forms a liposome that efficiently condenses and transports the genetic material into the cell.
