Preferred Label : 1-alkyl-2-acetylglycerophosphocholine esterase;
MeSH definition : A lipoprotein-associated PHOSPHOLIPASE A2 which modulates the action of PLATELET ACTIVATING
FACTOR by hydrolyzing the SN-2 ester bond to yield the biologically inactive lyso-platelet-activating
factor. It has specificity for phospholipid substrates with short-chain residues at
the SN-2 position, but inactive against long-chain phospholipids. Deficiency in this
enzyme is associated with many diseases including ASTHMA, and HYPERCHOLESTEROLEMIA.;
