General Information
Term phosphatidylethanolamine metabolic process ID (Ontology) GO:0046337 (Gene Ontology)
Definition The chemical reactions and pathways involving phosphatidylethanolamine, any of a class of glycerophospholipids in which a phosphatidyl group is esterified to the hydroxyl group of ethanolamine. It is a major structural phospholipid in mammalian systems. It tends to be more abundant than phosphatidylcholine in the internal membranes of the cell and is an abundant component of prokaryotic membranes.[ ISBN:0198506732 ]
Also Known As "phosphatidylethanolamine metabolism"
