Interface of Phospholipase Activity, Immune Cell Function, and Atherosclerosis

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Phospholipases are a family of lipid-altering enzymes that can either reduce or increase bioactive lipid levels. Bioactive lipids elicit signaling responses, activate transcription factors, promote G-coupled-protein activity, and modulate membrane ...

Signal-activated phospholipase regulation of leukocyte chemotaxis

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2009
Signal-activated phospholipases are a recent focus of the rapidly growing field of lipid signaling. The extent of their impact on the pathways regulating diverse cell functions is beginning to be appreciated.

Global analysis of putative phospholipases in Plasmodium falciparum reveals an essential role of the phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C in parasite maturation

open access: yesmBio, 2023
For its replication within red blood cells, the malaria parasite depends on a highly active and regulated lipid metabolism. Enzymes involved in lipid metabolic processes such as phospholipases are, therefore, potential drug targets.

Substrate-Specific Inhibition Constants for Phospholipase A2 Acting on Unique Phospholipid Substrates in Mixed Micelles and Membranes Using Lipidomics. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Assaying lipolytic enzymes is extremely challenging because they act on water-insoluble lipid substrates, which are normally components of micelles, vesicles, and cellular membranes.

Lipases and proteases inhibition by Averrhoa carambola L. fruit extracts

open access: yesPhytomedicine Plus, 2021
Background: Proteases and phospholipases A2 are involved in processes related to hemostasis. Medicinal plants which contain bioactive phytochemicals, can act as enzymatic modulators.

Subcellular localization of the phospholipases A of rat heart: evidence for a cytosolic phospholipase A1.

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 1985
During myocardial ischemia increased levels of lysoglycerophospholipids have been reported which may be deleterious to myocardial function. Phospholipases are presumed to be important in the regulation of this process.

A neurotoxic phospholipase A2 impairs yeast amphiphysin activity and reduces endocytosis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
BACKGROUND: Presynaptically neurotoxic phospholipases A(2) inhibit synaptic vesicle recycling through endocytosis. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Here we provide insight into the action of a presynaptically neurotoxic phospholipase A(2) ammodytoxin A (AtxA) on ...

An amphitropic cAMP-binding protein in yeast mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
: We describe the first example of a mitochondrial protein with a covalently attached phos-phatidylinositol moiety acting as a membrane anchor. The protein can be metabolically labeled with both stearic acid and inositol.

Group XV phospholipase A2, a lysosomal phospholipase A2 [PDF]

open access: yesProgress in Lipid Research, 2011
A phospholipase A₂ was identified from MDCK cell homogenates with broad specificity toward glycerophospholipids including phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylserine, and phosphatidylglycerol. The phospholipase has the unique ability to transacylate short chain ceramides.
