Fig. 1From: Detection of cancer cells using SapC-DOPS nanovesiclesGeneration of SapC-DOPS. Saposin C (SapC) is a low molecular weight, heat-stable protein which can fuse lipid vesicles into cells by binding to phosphatidylserine (PS) in an acidic environment. Mixing SapC with dioleoylphosphatidylserine (DOPS) at a low pH results in the formation of SapC-DOPS vesicles with a mean diameter of ~200 nm.
