Search for and functional annotation of multi-domain PLA2 family proteins in flatworms

open access: yesВавиловский журнал генетики и селекции
The phospholipase A2 (PLA2) is a superfamily of hydrolases that catalyze the hydrolysis of phospholipids and play a key role in many molecular processes in the cells and the organism as a whole.

A group III patatin-like phospholipase gene pPLAIIIδ regulates lignin biosynthesis and influences the rate of seed germination in Arabidopsis thaliana

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
The lignification of plant secondary walls is an important process that provides plants with mechanical support. However, the presence of lignin in the secondary walls affects the readily availability of cellulose required in various industries ...

The PNPLA family of enzymes: characterisation and biological role

open access: yesArhiv za Higijenu Rada i Toksikologiju, 2023
This paper brings a brief review of the human patatin-like phospholipase domain-containing protein (PNPLA) family. Even though it consists of only nine members, their physiological roles and mechanisms of their catalytic activity are not fully understood.

Functional Modulation of Human Macrophages by Secreted Phospholipases A2: Implications in Cancer

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2022
Cancer-related inflammation has recently emerged as an important component of cancer pathogenesis that is able to promote tumor initiation and progression, and the acquisition of the known hallmark capabilities, including evasion from immunosurveillance.

Phospholipases A and Lysophospholipases in protozoan parasites

open access: yesMicrobial Cell, 2023
Phospholipases (PLs) and Lysophospholipases (LysoPLs) are a diverse group of esterases responsible for phospholipid or lysophospholipid hydrolysis. They are involved in several biological processes, including lipid catabolism, modulation of the immune ...

Phospholipases C and D and Their Role in Biotic and Abiotic Stresses

open access: yesPlants, 2021
Plants, as sessile organisms, have adapted a fine sensing system to monitor environmental changes, therefore allowing the regulation of their responses. As the interaction between plants and environmental changes begins at the surface, these changes are ...

Phospholipases A1 [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2011
Phospholipase A1 (PLA1) is an enzyme that hydrolyzes phospholipids and produces 2-acyl-lysophospholipids and fatty acids. This lipolytic activity is conserved in a wide range of organisms but is carried out by a diverse set of PLA1 enzymes. Where their function is known, PLA1s have been shown to act as digestive enzymes, possess central roles in ...

Phospholipase C [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Phospholipase C (PLC) family members constitute a family of diverse enzymes. Thirteen different family members have been cloned. These family members have unique structures that mediate various functions. Although PLC family members all appear to signal through the bi-products of cleaving phospholipids, it is clear that each family member, and at times

PTEN regulates phospholipase D and phospholipase C [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2007
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 ...
