Phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C in health and disease
Journal of Lipid Research, 2015 Phospholipases are widely occurring and can be found in several different organisms, including bacteria, yeast, plants, animals, and viruses. Phospholipase C (PLC) is a class of phospholipases that cleaves phospholipids on the diacylglycerol (DAG) side ...

Differentiation of phospholipases A in mitochondria and lysosomes of rat liver
Journal of Lipid Research, 1969 Highly purified mitochondria from rat liver contain a phospholipase A that catalyzes removal of 2-fatty acids, with a pH optimum above pH 8.0. Lysosomal preparations appeared to have two phospholipases A associated with them, one with a pH optimum at ...

Signalling Pinpointed to the Tip: The Complex Regulatory Network That Allows Pollen Tube Growth
Plants, 2020 Plants display a complex life cycle, alternating between haploid and diploid generations. During fertilisation, the haploid sperm cells are delivered to the female gametophyte by pollen tubes, specialised structures elongating by tip growth, which is ...

Calcium-independent phospholipases A2 and their roles in biological processes and diseases
Journal of Lipid Research, 2015 Among the family of phospholipases A2 (PLA2s) are the Ca2+-independent PLA2s (iPLA2s) and they are designated group VI iPLA2s. In relation to secretory and cytosolic PLA2s, the iPLA2s are more recently described and details of their expression and roles ...
