Phospholipase A2 Biochemistry [PDF]
The phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) superfamily consists of many different groups of enzymes that catalyze the hydrolysis of the sn-2 ester bond in a variety of different phospholipids. The products of this reaction, a free fatty acid, and lysophospholipid have many different important physiological roles.

Lysosomal phospholipase A2 (PLA2G15) is a ubiquitous enzyme uniquely characterized by a subcellular localization to the lysosome and late endosome. PLA2G15 has an acidic pH optimum, is calcium independent, and acts as a transacylase in the presence of N-acetyl-sphingosine as an acceptor.

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

Secretory phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) is a growing family of structurally related, disulfide-rich, low molecular weight, lipolytic enzymes with a His-Asp catalytic dyad. sPLA2s are distributed in a wide variety of vertebrate and invertebrate animals, plants, bacteria, and viruses, and there are 10 catalytically active sPLA2 isozymes in mammals.
