phosphatidylcholine + sterol Homo sapiens enzyme is believed to act on the surface of high-density lipoproteins, catalyzes the hydrolysis of fatty acids of the sn-2-position of phosphatidylcholine and transfers the fatty acid to free cholesterol to form cholesteryl ester, transesterification is the major source of plasma cholesteryl ester in human, enzyme has the key role in the transport of cholesterol from peripheral tissues to the liver, in the interconversion of HDL subclasses and the maintenance of lipoprotein structure 1-acylglycerophosphocholine + sterol ester
