Biochem/physiol Actions

Phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) is involved in providing rigidity to the cell membranevia hexagonal phase structures, which promote tight packing of themembrane bilayer formed byphosphotidylcholine.It is also involved in the conversion of prions from the non-toxicto toxic conformation. PE alsoinitiates the autophagosome formation by attaching covalently to theautophagyAtg8protein.

General description
