Which of the following statement is incorrect about plasmalogen?

#Unit 1. Molecules and their Interaction Relevant to Biology
  1. Plasmalogens are glycerophospholipids in which the C1 substituent of the glycerol moiety is linked via an α, β-unsaturated ether linkage in the cis configuration.
  2. Plasmalogens are glycerophospholipids in which the C1 substituent of the glycerol moiety is linked via an α, β-unsaturated ester linkage in the cis configuration.
  3. Ethanolamine, choline, and serine form the most common plasmalogen head groups.
  4. Because the vinyl ether group is easily oxidized, plasmalogens may react with oxygen free radicals, by-products of normal metabolism, thereby preventing free-radical damage to other cell constituents.
