Phytophthora infestans has a plethora of phospholipase D enzymes including a subclass that has extracellular activity [PDF]
In eukaryotes phospholipase D (PLD) is involved in many cellular processes. Currently little is known about PLDs in oomycetes. Here we report that the oomycete plant pathogen Phytophthora infestans has a large repertoire of PLDs divided over six ...

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.

Cloning and characterisation of phospholipase C X-domain containing proteins (PLCXDs) [PDF]
Members of the phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PI-PLC) enzyme family play a fundamental role in cell signalling pathways by regulating cytosolic calcium and/or the activity of several protein kinases. This thesis reports the identification,

Identification of a novel class of mammalian phosphoinositol-specific phospholipase C enzymes. [PDF]
Phosphoinositol (PhoIns)-specific phospholipase C enzymes (PLCs) are central to the inositol lipid signaling pathways and contribute to intracellular Ca2+ release and protein kinase C activation. Five distinct classes of PhoIns-specific PLCs are known to

Enzymatic Degumming of Rice Bran Oil Using Different Commercial Phospholipases and Their Cocktails
Rice bran oil is a highly nutritious vegetable oil, as it is rich in tocols and γ-oryzanol. Degumming is the first step in the vegetable oil refining process, and its main objective is the removal of phospholipids or gums. In the present study, enzymatic

Hydrolysis of phospholipids by a lysosomal enzyme
The phospholipid-hydrolyzing activity of rat liver lysosomes has been studied. These lysosomes contain a phospholipase that cleaves both fatty acid ester linkages of lecithin and of phosphatidyl ethanolamine and releases free fatty acids from both ...

Biofilm, proteinase and phospholipase production by Candida albicans isolates from a hospital in Thailand [PDF]
This study aimed to determine biofilm formation, and production of phospholipase and proteinase in 73 clinical isolates of Candida albicans. Biofilms formed in a 96-well plate were quantified by crystal violet staining.
