Phosphatidylcholine is the most abundant phospholipid in mammalian, plant, and yeast cells.{38744} It is found mainly in the outer leaflet of cell membranes and can make up approximately half of the total phospholipids.{139} In mammalian tissues, phosphatidylcholine commonly contains a saturated and unsaturated fatty acid at the C-1 and C-2 positions of glycerol, respectively. It is a substrate for various enzymes in cell signaling pathways that is cleaved by phospholipases into diacylglycerol and phosphocholine or phosphatidic acid and choline. Phosphatidylcholines (egg) is a mixture of phosphatidylcholines isolated from chicken egg with fatty acids of variable chain lengths acylated to the sn-1 and sn-2 positions. [Matreya, LLC.

    The maintenance of embryonic stem cells in culture typically requires feeder cells and various exogenous factors found in serum. Murine embryonic stem (mES) cells can be maintained in the absence of feeder cells and serum but require the leukemia inhibitor factor (LIF) and bone morphogenic protein (BMP) to prevent differentiation and promote self-renewal.
