Biosynthesis of plasmenylethanolamine (1-O-alk-1'-enyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine) in the guinea pig heart

In this study, the isolated guinea pig heart was pulse-labeled with a precursor of ethanolamine glycerophospholipid, and then chased with the non-radioactive compound for 0-8 h. Labeling with hexadecanol revealed that plasmanylethanolamine was the immediate precursor of plasmenylethanolamine, but a...
