Phosphatidylcholine-hydrolysing phospholipase C, also known as non-specific phospholipase C (NPC), is a new member of the plant phospholipase family that reacts to environmental stresses such as phosphate deficiency and aluminium toxicity, and has a role

Phospholipase C isozymes as effectors of Ras superfamily GTPases
The physiological effects of many extracellular stimuli are initiated through receptor-promoted activation of phospholipase C and inositol lipid signaling pathways.

Of the 102 samples collected from mammals and birds, both domestic and captive wild, 48 were found to be positive for Clostridium perfringens. Most of the mammal isolates (84.38%) appeared to have been collected from clinically affected animals, while 33.

Lipid levels in sperm, eggs, and during fertilization in Xenopus laevis
Critical developmental periods, such as fertilization, involve metabolic activation, membrane fusion events such as sperm-egg or plasma membrane-cortical granule merger, and production and hydrolysis of phospholipids.

Background Numerous investigations demonstrate a novel role of thyroid hormone as a modulator of signal transduction. Protein kinase C (PKC) is critical to the mechanism by which thyroid hormones potentiate both the antiviral and immunomodulatory actions

Activation of phospholipase D-2 by P2X7 agonists in rat submandibular gland acini
Exogenous ATP stimulated phospholipase D (PLD), but not sphingomyelinase in rat submandibular gland (SMG) acini. PLD activation was dependent upon extracellular Ca2+ and did not involve intracellular Ca2+ mobilization or phosphoinositide-specific ...

Lipid vesicle fusion induced by phospholipase C activity in model bile.
Using a system of phosphatidylcholine-cholesterol vesicles to model the vesicle phase of mammalian bile (1:1 molar ratio) we evaluated whether very small amounts of C.

Kinetic Scaffolding Mediated by a Phospholipase C–β and Gq Signaling Complex
Reciprocal Regulation An essential step in many signaling cascades is inositol lipid hydrolysis catalyzed by phospholipase C–β. The latter is activated by the α subunit of the heterotrimeric G protein Gq, and it in turn inactivates Gαq, thus sharpening ...

Regulation of phospholipase C δ1 by sphingosine
Sphingosine, which is on the pathway of sphingomyelin degradation, activates phospholipase C (PLC) delta1 moderately. In the liposome assay effect of sphingosine on PLC delta1 activity depends on KCl concentration. Stimulation of PLC delta1 by sphingosine increased as the KCl concentration is increased from 0 to 100 mM, and then diminished with the ...

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.
