    basic FUNCTION
  • catalyzes hydrolytic cleavage of the vinyl ether bond of lysoplasmalogen, forming fatty aldehyde and glycerophosphoethanolamine or glycerophosphocholine
  • may be important in regulating plasmalogen levels in animal cells
  • probably an important enzyme in maintaining the balance between plasmalogen and lysoplasmalogen and thereby preserving membrane stability and function
