  • Title: Phosphatidylethanolamine of lung surfactant: proportion and fatty acid patterns of the alkylacyl, alkenylacyl and diacyl subclasses.
    Author: Rüstow B, Goracci G, Porcellati S, Anceschi MM, Kunze D.
    Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1988 Aug 12; 961(3):371-3. PubMed ID: 3401501.
    Abstract:
    The phosphatidylethanolamine fraction isolated from lung surfactant consisted of 33% of the alkylacyl, 39% of the alkenylacyl and 25% of the diacyl subclass. Palmitic acid was the major fatty acid of the alkyl acyl and alkenylacyl subclasses. In diacylphosphatidylethanolamine, saturated and unsaturated fatty acids revealed a ratio of nearly 1.
