Protein Type Enzyme
Biological Properties
General Function Involved in 1-alkyl-2-acetylglycerophosphocholine esterase activity
Specific Function Modulates the action of platelet-activating factor (PAF) by hydrolyzing the sn-2 ester bond to yield the biologically inactive lyso-PAF. Has a specificity for substrates with a short residue at the sn-2 position. It is inactive against long-chain phospholipids.
