The origin of long-chain fatty acids required for de novo ether lipid/plasmalogen synthesis
Peroxisomes are single-membrane bounded organelles that in humans play a dual role in lipid metabolism, including the degradation of very long-chain fatty acids and the synthesis of ether lipids/plasmalogens. The first step in de novo ether lipid synthesis is mediated by the peroxisomal enzyme glyce...
