In addition, some members of the PLD superfamily may employ primary alcohols such as ethanol or 1-butanol in the cleavage of the phospholipid, effectively catalyzing the exchange the polar lipid headgroup.
Ademais, algúns membros da superfamilia da PLD poden empregar alcohois primarios como o etanol ou 1-butanol na clivaxe do fosfolípido, catalizando o intercambio de cabeza polar.
