Hydrolysis and transesterification of platelet-activating factor by lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase.

Purified lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT, EC 2.3.1.43) from human plasma was found to hydrolyze platelet-activating factor (PAF) to lyso-PAF and acetate. In addition, it catalyzed the transfer of the acetate group from PAF to lysophosphatidylcholine, forming lyso-PAF and a 1-acyl analog o...
