摘要
A crucial step in the cell-death process of ferroptosis is the incorporation of free polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) into membrane phospholipids. An enzyme has now been identified that contributes to ferroptosis by directly transferring PUFAs from phospholipids to ether lysophospholipids to form ether phospholipids.
