Description

General description

Calcium-independent phospholipase A2 (iPLA2) belongs to the group six of phospholipase A2 (PLA2) enzymes. The protein is encoded by the gene mapped to human chromosome 22q13.1. iPLA2 is an intracellular enzyme. It is present both in the cytosol and in membrane fractions. The encoded protein contains 752 amino acids and has a mass of 85kDa. It is characterized with a eight ankyrin repeats and a catalytic domain.

Application

Anti-Phospholipase A2 (iPLA2) antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blotting.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Calcium-independent phospholipase A2 (iPLA2) in the absence of Ca²⁺, catalyzes the hydrolysis of the Sn-2 ester bond in phospholipids to produce free fatty acids and lysophospholipids. iPLA2 might play an essential role in activating the receptor-mediated signaling pathway. Additionally, it also yields precursors for bioactive compounds such as eicosanoid and platelet-activating factor. The encoded protein performs housekeeping role in phospholipid remodeling.

Physical form

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