development of a spectrophotometric assay to measure, continuously and specifically, phospholipase A1 or phospholipase A2 activities using synthetic glycerophosphatidylcholines containing alpha-oleostearic acid. Substrates 1-alpha-eleostearoyl-2-octadecyl-rac-glycero-3-phosphocholine or 1-octadecyl-2-alpha-eleostearoyl-rac-glycero-3-phosphocholine differentiate, with excellent accuracy, between PLA1 and PLA2 activity
hydrolysis of nonpolar lipids, i.e. triacylglycerols, diacylglycerols and monoacylglycerols, when crude sunflower lecithin is treated with commercial product Lecitase VR Ultra. During the reaction, an acyl-migration phenomenon is observed. In 1 h of reaction the content of triacylglycerols decreases to 54%, while diacylglycerol and monoacylglycerol concentrations increase from 0.4 to 3.5 and from 1.9 to 6.5 g/100 g of crude lecithin, respectively. Along the reaction, different contents of glycerides can be achieved

the recombinant protein is allergenic in a biological assay as demonstrated by its capability to induce histamine release of wasp venom-sensitive basophils. The recombinant phospholipase A1 presents a good candidate for wasp venom immunotherapy
acidotropic accumulation of cocaine in lysosomes inhibits acid phospholipase A1 and inactivates acid sphingomyelinase, inducing a mixed lysosomal lipidosis
may provide a valuable tool for diagnostic and therapeutic approaches in hymenoptera venom allergy. Recombinant Ves v 1 is an essential component to assess the sensitisation of individuals to yellow jacket venom and its recombinant availability complemented with Ves v 5 and phospholipase A2 from honeybee venom (Api m 1) allows for clear assignment of sensitisation patterns
homozygous mutation c.395dup/p.Gly133Argfs*26 in DDHD1 results in a complex form of hereditary spastic paraplegia associated with retinal dystrophy and a pattern of neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation
role of enzyme in oncogenesis and metastasis of colorectal cancer. Tumor depth and hematogenous metastasis independently positively correlate with phospholipase A1 expression. High expression is associated with shorter disease-free survival, although it is not an independent predictive factor
the enzyme mixture from Thermomyces lanuginosus/Fusarium oxysporum acts as biocatalyst in a solvent-free system containing PLA1 for the modification of phosphatidylcholine from fatty acid saponification of fish oil, overview

bio-imprinting of phospholipase A1 with 5% soybean lecithin at pH 5.0, increases its phospholipase activity in lecithin-hexane solution by 30.9fold and substantially enhances its substrate specificity. Incorporated of 105 mg diatomite/mg as an immobilization carrier further increases phospholipase activity from 562 U/g to1288 U/g
expression of phospholipase A1 in Escherichia coli results in extremely low productivity associated with inhibition of transformed cell growth. Poduction of Serratia sp. phospholipase A1 in a cell-free protein synthesis system results in an over 1000fold higher titer of functional phospholipase A1
immobilized Aspergillus oryzae overexpressing phospholipase A1 and cultivated in the presence of reticulated polyurethane foams, shows extracellular phospholipase A1 activities of 51.2-62.0 U/ml after 96-120 h. The extracellular phospholipase A1 activity of the immobilized cells at 0.5% polypeptone concentration is 34.8 U/ml. High growth rates of immobilized cells contribute to the enhanced phospholipase A1 production
maximum phospholipase A1 production of 51.55 U/ml can be achieved using defatted rice bran in solid state fermentation with moisture content of 1:1.5 and after 48h of incubation at 37°C
optimal reaction conditions migration for partial hydrolysis of soy phosphatidylcholine in hexane in order to maximize the lysophosphatidylcholine content while suppressing acyl are 60°C, 3 h reaction time, with a water content of 10% of phosphatidylcholine, and enzyme loading of 1% of phosphatidylcholine. Under these conditions, the reaction products contain 83.7 mol% lysophosphatidylcholine and are free of glycerylphosphorylcholine. Gycerylphosphorylcholine has a higher total unsaturated fatty acid content than original phosphatidylcholine has and is mainly composed of linoleic acid
preparation of L-alpha-glycerylphosphorylcholine via phospholipase A1-catalyzed hydrolysis of soy phosphatidylcholine. Optimal conditions are temperature 50°C, reaction time 30 h, water content 69 g/100 g of phosphatidylcholine weight, and enzyme loading 13 g/100 g of phosphatidylcholine weight. The optimal n-hexane-to-water ratio in the medium is 5.8:1 (v/v). L-alpha-glycerylphosphorylcholine with purity of 99.3 g/100 g is obtained
