A novel assay for the introduction of the vinyl ether double bond into plasmalogens using pyrene-labeled substrates

Plasmanylethanolamine desaturase (PEDS) (EC 1.14.99.19) introduces the 1-prime double bond into plasmalogens, one of the most abundant phospholipids in the human body. This labile membrane enzyme has not been purified and its coding sequence is unknown. Previous assays for this enzyme used radiolabe...
