Recent Advances in the Cellular and Developmental Biology of Phospholipases in Plants
Phospholipases (PLs) are lipid-hydrolyzing enzymes known to have diverse signaling roles during plant abiotic and biotic stress responses. They catalyze lipid remodeling, which is required to generate rapid responses of plants to environmental cues ...

Relation of lipid structure of sarcotubular vesicles to Ca++ transport activity
The role of lipids of the sarcotubular membranes in their Ca++ uptake and Mg-ATPase activities was investigated. Treatment of the membranes with phospholipase C inhibits both processes. Treatment with phospholipase A and phospholipase D, which results in

The intracellular phospholipase A1 protein family
Phospholipase A1 is an enzyme that hydrolyzes phospholipids, producing 2-acyl-lysophospholipids and fatty acids. The intracellular phospholipase A1 (iPLA1) protein family is a relatively recently discovered lipid-metabolizing enzyme family.

Phospholipase B activity of a purified phospholipase A from Vipera palestinae venom
Phospholipase was isolated (in two fractions) from Vipera palestinae venom and it was shown to possess phospholipase A activity (hydrolyzing diacyl-sn-glycerophosphorylcholines, e.g., lecithin, in the 2-position) as well as lysophospholipase ...

PTEN regulates phospholipase D and phospholipase C [PDF]
PTEN is an ubiquitously expressed tumor suppressor which plays a prominent role in the pathogenesis of many types of sporadic solid tumors, including breast cancer, as well as hematologic malignancies. Germline PTEN mutations cause 85% of Cowden syndrome (CS), characterized by a high risk of breast and thyroid cancers, and 65% of Bannayan-Riley ...

Phospholipase A2 and Phospholipase B activities in fungi [PDF]
As saprophytes or disease causing microorganisms, fungi acquire nutrients from dead organic material or living host organisms. Lipids as structural components of cell membranes and storage compartments play an important role as energy-rich food source.

Relationship between NAFLD and coronary artery disease: A Mendelian randomization study
Abstract Background and Aims There is an ongoing debate on whether NAFLD is an active contributor or an innocent bystander in the pathogenesis of coronary artery disease (CAD). The aim of the present study was to assess the causal relationship between NAFLD and CAD.

Phospholipase A Activates Hemostasis
Background Phospholipases A 2 (PLA 2 ) are aggressive enzymes that can destroy phospholipids of cell membranes. The resulting cell fragments trigger the kallikrein—mediated contact phase of coagulation. The aim of the present study was to expose citrated
