Black-necked spitting cobra (Naja nigricollis) phospholipases A2 may cause Trypanosoma brucei death by blocking endocytosis through the flagellar pocket

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
African trypanosomes, such as Trypanosoma brucei, are flagellated protozoa which proliferate in mammals and cause a variety of diseases in people and animals. In a mammalian host, the external face of the African trypanosome plasma membrane is covered by

Bacterial phospholipase A

open access: yesBiochimica et Biophysica Acta - Molecular and Cell Biology of Lipids, 2000
Within the large family of lipolytic enzymes, phospholipases constitute a very diverse subgroup with physiological functions such as digestion and signal transduction. Most phospholipases may associate with membranes at the lipid-water interface. However, in many Gram-negative bacteria, a phospholipase is present which is located integrally in the ...

Apolipoprotein B exhibits phospholipase A1 and phospholipase A2 activities

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 1993
Low density lipoproteins (LDL) as well as isolated apolipoprotein B (ApoB) have been shown to exhibit phospholipase A2 (PLA2) activity toward phospholipids containing an oxidized or short fatty acyl chain at position 2. Some of these studies employed the fluorescent analogue of phosphatidyl choline (PC), C6‐NBD‐PC, containing NBD‐caproic acid (C6‐NBD ...
