They are composed of phosphate, choline, glycerol (as the ester), and two fatty acids. Various fatty acids pairs distinguish the various lecithins. Commercial lecithin, a wetting and emulsifying agent used in animal feeds, baking products and mixes, chocolate, cosmetics and soap, insecticides, paint, and plastics, is a mixture of lecithins and other phospholipids in an edible oil; {i} fatty substance found in plant and animal tissues; Any of a group of phospholipids common in plants and animals They are essential for the metabolism of fats and are used in the processing of foods Deficiency leads to hepatic and renal disorders, high serum cholesterol levels, atherosclerosis and arteriosclerosis; Soybeans and eggs are a good source of lecithin It is a fatty substance that acts as an emulsifier and helps keep your blood's cholesterol circulation freely It has been shown to reduce cholesterol levels Lecithin is sold as a powder available at health food stores; a natural product from the soy bean which acts as a thinner In chocolate manufacture it controls flow properties by reducing viscosity
Lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase: Lecithin-cholesterol acyltransferase (LCAT, also called phosphatidylcholine-sterol O-acyltransferase) is an enzyme that converts free cholesterol into cholesteryl ester (a more hydrophobic form of cholesterol), which is then sequestered into the core of a lipoprotein particle, eventually making the newly synthesized HDL spherical and forcing the reaction to become unidirectional since the particles are removed from the surface. The enzyme is bound to high-density lipoproteins (HDLs) and low-density lipoproteins in the blood plasma
