Identification of caspase 3 motifs and critical aspartate residues in human Phospholipase D1b and Phopsholipase D2a [PDF]
Stimulation of mammalian cells frequently initiates phospholipase D-catalysed hydrolysis of phosphatidylcholine in the plasma membrane to yield phosphatidic acid (PA) a novel lipid messenger.

The marine toxin, Yessotoxin, induces apoptosis and increases mitochondrial activity
: Yessotoxin (YTX) group are phycotoxins produced by different species of dinoflagellates. YTX activates the Phosphodiesterases (PDEs). This group of toxins can be consumed by humans, however no intoxication events are reported.
