General description

Ca2+-independent phospholipase A2 (iPLA2), also known as PLA2G6, is a member of the PLA2 superfamily. It consists of a C-terminal calmodulin-binding domain, a bipartite nuclear localization sequence, GXSXG serine lipase residues, and ankyrin repeats at the N-terminus. iPLA2 gene is mapped to human chromosome 22q13.1 and encodes alternatively spliced isoforms.

Specificity

Anti-Phospholipase A2 (iPLA2) (C-terminal region), specifically recognizes human and rat iPLA2.

Application

Anti-Phospholipase A2 (iPLA2) (C-terminal region) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in immunoblotting.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Ca2+-independent phospholipase A2 (iPLA2) catalyzes the cleavage of fatty acids from the sn-2 position of phospholipids. iPLA2 is implicated in leukotriene and prostaglandin production as well as in arachidonic acid release phospholipid remodeling. Mutations in the PLA2G6 gene are the cause of two childhood neurologic disorders, neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA) and infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy 1 (INAD1). Recent evidence suggests that both Ca2+-dependent PLA2 (cPLA2) and iPLA2 may play a central role in memory deficits at early stages.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phos­phate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide.

Storage and Stability

Store at −20 °C. For continuous use, the product may be stored at 2−8 °C for up to one month. For extended storage, freeze at −20 °C in working aliquots. Repeated freezing and thawing, or storage in “frost-free” freezers, is not recommended. If slight turbidity occurs upon prolonged storage, clarify the solution by centrifugation. Discard working dilutions if not used within 12 hours.

Mutations in the PLA2G6 gene have been identified in autosomal recessive neurodegenerative diseases classified as infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy (INAD), neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation (NBIA), and dystonia-parkinsonism. These clinical syndromes display two significantly different disease phenotypes. NBIA and INAD are

Nanoparticles (NPs) elicit sterile inflammation, but the underlying signaling pathways are poorly understood. Here, we report that human monocytes are particularly vulnerable to amorphous silica NPs, as evidenced by single-cell-based analysis of peripheral blood mononuclear cells using cytometry by time-of-flight

Infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy (INAD) is a progressive, autosomal recessive neurodegenerative disease characterized by axonal dystrophy, abnormal iron deposition and cerebellar atrophy. This disease was recently mapped to PLA2G6, which encodes group VI Ca(2+)-independent phospholipase A(2) (iPLA(2) or iPLA(2)β). Here we

Alzheimer disease (AD), a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, is the leading cause of dementia in the elderly. A combination of cholinergic and glutamatergic dysfunction appears to underlie the symptomatology of AD, and thus, treatment strategies should address impairments in both systems.

Mutations in PLA2G6, which encodes the calcium-independent phospholipase A2 group VI, cause neurodegeneration and diffuse cortical Lewy body formation by a yet undefined mechanism. We assessed whether altered protein glycosylation due to abnormal Golgi morphology might be a factor in
