additional information | the enzyme converts plasmanylethanolamine into plasmenylethanolamine by introducing a vinyl double bound. It requires cytochrome b5, molecular oxygen and either NADPH or NADH as cofactors for functional catalysis. Plasmanylcholines are no substrates for plasmanylethanolamine desaturase | Homo sapiens | ? | - |
