A series of 16 synthetic scramblase candidates were prepared from a tris(aminoethyl)amine (TREN) scaffold and evaluated for ability to facilitate translocation of fluorescent phospholipid probes across vesicle membranes and endogenous phosphatidylserine a

Tris(2-aminoethyl)amine derivatives with appended urea and sulfonamide groups are shown to facilitate the translocation of fluorescent phospholipid probes and endogenous phosphatidylserine across vesicle and erythrocyte cell membranes. The synthetic translocases appear to operate by binding to the phospholipid head groups and forming lipophilic supramolecular complexes which diffuse through the non-polar interior of the bilayer membrane.
