The Emerging Physiological Role of AGMO 10 Years after Its Gene Identification
Life, 2021 The gene encoding alkylglycerol monooxygenase (AGMO) was assigned 10 years ago. So far, AGMO is the only known enzyme capable of catalysing the breakdown of alkylglycerols and lyso-alkylglycerophospholipids. With the knowledge of the genetic information,

Plasmalogen in the Developing Brain.
Experimental Biology and Medicine, 1959 SummaryPlasmalogen content in brains of newborn rats is about 2 μmoles/g of wet tissue and represents about 10% of total phospholipid. During growth, and after major increase in brain weight, phospholipid composition shifts to one containing about 20 to 25% plasmalogen (12 μmoles/g). Maximal rate of accumulation of plasmalogen in brain occurs in 20- to

, 2022 Plasmalogens are a subclass of glycerophospholipid containing vinyl-ether bond at the sn-1 position of glycerol backbone. Ethanolamine-containing plasmalogens (plasmalogens) are major constituents of cellular membranes in mammalian cells and de novo ...

Journal of Lipid Research, 1977 Plasmalogenase (EC 3.3.2.-, 1-alk-1′-enyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphorylethanolamine aldehydrogendrolase) activities were assayed with the plasmalogens in dispersed myelin as the substrate.

The biochemistry of plasmalogens: II. Hemolytic activity of some plasmalogen derivatives
Journal of Lipid Research, 1963 A series of lysophosphatides was prepared from the plasmalogens phosphatidal choline and phosphatidal ethanolamine, and their hemolytic activity compared with that of α-palmitoyl lysolecithin. The nature of the linkage of the hydrocarbon chain (acyl ester, α,β-unsaturated ether, or alkyl ether) did not appreciably affect lytic activity. Unsaturation in

Ether Lipids in Obesity: From Cells to Population Studies
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Ether lipids are a unique class of glycero- and glycerophospho-lipid that carry an ether or vinyl ether linked fatty alcohol at the sn-1 position of the glycerol backbone.

Characterization of plasmalogens in retinal glial cells
, 2015 Purpose: Plasmalogens (or ether-lipids) constitute a particular class of glycerophospholipids that are characterized by the presence of a vinyl-ether bond at the sn-1 position of the glycerol backbone and by the preferential esterification of ...

Marine Drugs, 2023 Asthma associated with obesity is considered the most severe phenotype and can be challenging to manage with standard medications. Marine-derived 1-O-alkyl-glycerols (AGs), as precursors for plasmalogen synthesis, have high biological activity, making ...
