A novel lysophosphatidylcholine acyl transferase activity is expressed by peroxiredoxin 6

The phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activity of peroxiredoxin (Prdx)6 has important physiological roles in the synthesis of lung surfactant and in the repair of peroxidized cell membranes. These functions require the activity of a lysophospholipid acyl transferase as a critical component of the phospholipid...
