Rate of acyl migration in lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) is dependent upon the nature of the acyl group. Greater stability of sn-2 docosahexaenoyl LPC compared to the more saturated LPC species
Fig 6
Time course of isomerization of albumin-bound sn-2 acyl LPCs at 37°C.
Freshly prepared sn-2 acyl LPCs were complexed with 0.1% BSA in PBS buffer at pH 7.4, and incubated at 37°C for the indicated periods of time. The percent of the sn-2 acyl isomer remaining after each time point was determined by LC/MS/MS. The values shown are mean ± SD of 3 separate analyses. Note that the error bars too small to be visible at some points.
