Model of a phospholipid monolayer depicts an unsaturated phospholipid on the left. The unsaturated chain of this phospholipid can be oxidatively fragmented by a reactive oxygen species (ROS), as shown on the right. Shown on the right is one of many possible “whisker” products. The shortened and more polar chain depicted from this fragmentation is shown pointing toward the aqueous phase, and the ester bond targeted for esterolysis by PAFAH-II is indicated with an arrow.
