Enzyme Information
3.1.1.4 |
Phospholipase A(2).
based on mapping to UniProt P53816
Phosphatidylcholine + H(2)O = 1-acylglycerophosphocholine + a carboxylate.
-!- Also acts on phosphatidylethanolamine, choline plasmalogen and phosphatides, removing the fatty acid attached to the 2-position.
|
2.3.1.- |
Transferring groups other than amino-acyl groups.
based on mapping to UniProt P53816
|
3.1.1.32 |
Phospholipase A(1).
based on mapping to UniProt P53816
Phosphatidylcholine + H(2)O = 2-acylglycerophosphocholine + a carboxylate.
-!- Has a much broader specificity than EC 3.1.1.4.
|
2.3.1.135 |
Phosphatidylcholine--retinol O-acyltransferase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q9JI60
Phosphatidylcholine + retinol--[cellular-retinol-binding-protein] = 2-acylglycerophosphocholine + retinyl-ester--[cellular-retinol-binding- protein].
-!- A key enzyme in retinoid metabolism, catalyzing the transfer of an acyl group from the sn-1 position of phosphatidylcholine to retinol, forming retinyl esters which are then stored. -!- Recognizes the substrate both in free form and when bound to cellular-retinol-binding-protein, but has higher affinity for the bound form. -!- Can also esterify 11-cis-retinol.
