Historical perspective: phosphatidylserine and phosphatidylethanolamine from the 1800s to the present
2018, Journal of Lipid ResearchCitation Excerpt :Subsequently, in the 1950s, the nature of the chemical linkage of the alkyl group at the sn-1 position in a subset of PE species was established by several research groups who also showed that some PE species alternatively contained an alk-1-enyl (i.e., a vinyl ether) linkage at the sn-1 position (Fig. 9). Confirmation that ether lipids were constituents of animal tissues was provided by chemical studies and by demonstration by Snyder and colleagues in 1969 that the cell-free synthesis of the alkyl ether bond occurs (223, 224). A historical review of this discovery and of the chemistry and biochemistry of the ethanolamine plasmalogens can be found in (225).
