Glycerophospholipids act as regulators of various enzyme activities, and can be used as biological markers to indicate pathological states.
ChEBI: PE(10:0/10:0) is a phosphatidylethanolamine 20:0.
Phosphatidylethanolamine forms pure lipid structures. It maintains membrane fluidity in eukaryotic cells. Phosphatidylethanolamine plays a critical role in autophagy, cell division and protein folding. It acts as a precursor for the synthesis of various protein modifications. Phosphatidylethanolamine functions as an intermediate for the synthesis of glycerophospholipid classes.
