Phospholipases and the network of auxin signal transduction with ABP1 and TIR1 as two receptors: a comprehensive and provocative model

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2012
Phospholipase D (PLD), secreted phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) and patatin-related phospholipase A (pPLA) are important elements in auxin signal transduction. PLDζ2 has a function in auxin transport.

Insights into the mechanism of phospholipid hydrolysis by plant non-specific phospholipase C

Nature Communications, 2023
Non-specific phospholipase C (NPC) is a plant-specific phospholipid-hydrolyzing enzyme. Here, the authors define the molecular basis of how Arabidopsis NPC works, and provide new mechanistic insights into the members of phospholipase family.

Determination of germ tube, phospholipase, and proteinase production by bloodstream isolates of Candida albicans

Revista da Sociedade Brasileira de Medicina Tropical, 2013
Introduction Candida albicans is a commensal and opportunistic agent that causes infection in immunocompromised individuals. Several attributes contribute to the virulence and pathogenicity of this yeast, including the production of germ tubes (GTs) and ...

Effects of divalent cations and of phospholipase A activity on excretion of cloacin DF13 and lysis of host cells.

Journal of General Microbiology, 1986
Induction of cloacin DF13 synthesis in Escherichia coli harbouring plasmid CloDF13 results in the release of cloacin DF13, inhibition of growth and ultimately in lysis of the host cells.

Unraveling the senses of Phytophthora; leads to novel control strategies? [PDF]

, 2009
Oomycetes cause devastating diseases on plants and animals. They cause major yield losses in many crop plants and their control heavily depends on agrochemicals. This is certainly true for the potato late blight pathogen Phytophthora infestans.

Purification of Cytosolic Phospholipase A2α C2-domain after Expression in Soluble Form in Escherichia coli

Bio-Protocol, 2021
Previous expression/purification strategies for cytosolic phospholipase A2α C2-domain in Escherichia coli have relied on refolded protein recovered from inclusion bodies and sometimes containing C-terminal Cys139Ala and Cys141Ser substitutions to ...

Lactadherin inhibits secretory phospholipase A2 activity on pre-apoptotic leukemia cells. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) is a critical component of insect and snake venoms and is secreted by mammalian leukocytes during inflammation. Elevated secretory PLA2 concentrations are associated with autoimmune diseases and septic shock. Many sPLA2'

Expression of mRNA for phospholipase A(2), cyclooxygenases, and lipoxygenases in cultured human umbilical vascular endothelial and smooth muscle cells and in biopsies from umbilical arteries and veins [PDF]

, 1998
Arachidonic acid (AA) is released by phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) and then converted into vasoactive and inflammatory eicosanoids by cyclooxygenases (COX) and lipoxygenases (LOX).

Phospholipase A activity in the skin. Modulators of arachidonic acid release from phosphatidylcholine.

Biochemical Journal, 1979
The distribution of the hydrolysis of 1-acyl-2-[1-14C]arachidonoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine and the simultaneous biosynthesis of prostaglandins by subcellular fractions from human and rat skin membrane preparations were determined.
