AbstractPlatelet-activating factor (PAF) is a phospholipid, intermediate in its structure between diacyl- and lysophospholipids. The reorientation of this highly bioactive compound to the inner membrane layer of human erythrocytes after its primary incorporation into the outer membrane layer has been studied. Reorientation was shown to be a slow process with an initial rate of only 0.012 h−1. It does not depend on energy supply. From the steady-state distribution of PAF between inner and outer membrane layers, after very long incubation times (40–50 h), a preference of PAF for the outer membrane layer analogous to that of endogenous lecithin is derived. Our data indicate that the process of simple transbilayer reorientation of PAF is probab...
