Production of Phospholipase C (Alpha-toxin), Haemolysins and Lethal Toxins by Clostridium perfringens Types A to D [PDF]
To obtain high yields of extracellular enzymes and toxins for immunological analysis, type culture collection strains of Clostridium perfringens types A to D and 28 fresh isolates of C. perfringens type A from humans were grown in fermenters under controlled conditions in a pre-reduced proteose peptone medium.

Purification of two distinct types of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C from rat liver. Enzymological and structural studies [PDF]
Two kinds of phosphoinositide-specific phospholipase C (PLC) were purified from rat liver by acid precipitation and several steps of column chromatography. About 50% of the activity could be precipitated when the pH of the liver homogenate was lowered to pH 4.7. The redissolved precipitate yielded two peaks, PLC I and PLC II, in an Affi-gel Blue column,

Insulin Action on Polyunsaturated Phosphatidic Acid Formation in Rat Brain: An “In Vitro” Model with Synaptic Endings from Cerebral Cortex and Hippocampus [PDF]
The highly efficient formation of phosphatidic acid from exogenous 1-stearoyl-2-arachidonoyl-sn-glycerol (SAG) in rat brain synaptic nerve endings (synaptosomes) from cerebral cortex and hippocampus is reported.

Biological and Proteolytic Variation in the Venom of Crotalus scutulatus scutulatus from Mexico
Rattlesnake venoms may be classified according to the presence/absence and relative abundance of the neurotoxic phospholipases A 2 s (PLA 2 s), such as Mojave toxin, and snake venom metalloproteinases (SVMPs).

Inhibition of c-fos transcription and phosphorylation of the serum response factor by an inhibitor of phospholipase C-type reactions. [PDF]
Phospholipase C activity is necessary for transcriptional c-fos activation by providing diacylglycerol as an activator of protein kinase C. We found that transcriptional activation of c-fos and the phosphorylation of its major transcription factor were inhibited by tricyclodecan-9-yl xanthogenate, which blocks phospholipase C-type reactions ...
