Possesses both acyltransferase and acetyltransferase activities.
Activity is calcium-dependent.
Involved in platelet-activating factor (PAF) biosynthesis by catalyzing the conversion of the PAF precursor, 1-O-alkyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (lyso-PAF) into 1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (PAF).
Also converts lyso-PAF to 1-O-alkyl-2-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (PC), a major component of cell membranes and a PAF precursor.
Under resting conditions, acyltransferase activity is preferred.
Upon acute inflammatory stimulus, acetyltransferase activity is enhanced and PAF synthesis increases.
Also catalyzes the conversion of 1-acyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine to 1,2-diacyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine.
