- Background
-
Platelet Activating Factor (PAF) is a biologically active phospholipid, which exerts primarily proinflammatory activities by specifically signaling through G-protein-coupled receptors on platelets, neutrophils, and monocytes. Platelet Activating Factor Acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH) is a secreted protein that mediates PAF activity by specifically catalyzing hydrolysis of the "sn2" ester bond, resulting in the conversion of PAF to the biologically inactive lyso-PAF. PAF-AH can also interact with LDL particles to induce the hydrolysis of LDL associated, oxidized phospholipids, generating lysophosphatidylcholine (lyso-PC) and other lysophospholipids.
Alternative Names: PAF 2-acylhydrolase protein, PAF acetylhydrolase protein, LDL-associated phospholipase A2 protein, LDL-PLA2 protein, 2-acetyl-1-alkylglycerophosphocholine esterase protein, 1-alkyl-2-acetylglycerophosphocholine esterase protein - Molecular Weight
