Egg phosphatidyl ethanolamine is degraded to lysophosphatidyl ethanolamine and fatty acids by a phospholipase in post-heparin plasma at rates of 10 to 30 μmoles/hr per ml plasma. The optimal system for measuring this enzyme contained albumin and (NH4)2SO4, and the optimal pH was 8.8–9.1.

Calcium signaling is involved in diverse cellular processes in fungi
Calcium (Ca2+) is a universal signalling molecule of life. The Ca2+ signalling is an evolutionarily conserved process from prokaryotes to eukaryotes. Ca2+ at high concentration is deleterious to the cell; therefore, cell maintains a low resting level of ...

Phospholipases A in Trypanosomatids [PDF]
Phospholipases are a complex and important group of enzymes widespread in nature, that play crucial roles in diverse biochemical processes and are classified as A1, A2, C, and D. Phospholipases A1and A2activities have been linked to pathogenesis in various microorganisms, and particularly in pathogenic protozoa they have been implicated in cell ...

Topology and Function of the S. cerevisiae Autophagy Protein Atg15
The putative phospholipase Atg15 is required for the intravacuolar lysis of autophagic bodies and MVB vesicles. Intracellular membrane lysis is a highly sophisticated mechanism that is not fully understood.
