Primary Identifier | IPR002642 | Type | Domain |
Short Name | LysoPLipase_cat_dom |
description | This family consists of lysophospholipase / phospholipase B and cytosolic phospholipase A2 whichalso has a C2 domain . Phospholipase B enzymes catalyse the release of fatty acids from lysophsopholipids and are capable in vitroof hydrolyzing all phospholipids extractable from yeast cells []. Cytosolic phospholipase A2 associates with natural membranes in response to physiological increases in Ca2+and selectively hydrolyses arachidonyl phospholipids [], the aligned region corresponds the carboxy-terminal Ca2+-independent catalytic domain of the protein as discussed in []. |
