Application

Application Comment Organism
drug development new pharmaceutical approaches against PLA2 activity can be designed to prevent either membrane adsorption or nonhydrolytic bilayer-disrupting activity, both of which are necessary for enzymatic activity, opening up a new set of specific functional targets for inhibitor design Apis mellifera

Metals/Ions

Metals/Ions Comment Organism Structure
Ca2+ free Ca2+ is required for interaction between PLA2 and vesicles under catalytic conditions, Ca2+ addition for activation of PLA2 under initially noncatalytic conditions. Differences between enzymatic activity under initially catalytic and noncatalytic conditions, membrane binding under noncatalytic conditions must either cause PLA2 to adopt a less favorable conformation for enzymatic activity or prevent a Ca2+ ion (after Ca2+ addition) from entering the active site pocket Apis mellifera

additional information PLA2 shows low enzymatic activity toward positively charged vesicles due to a long lag period. PLA2 demonstrates a high degree of enzymatic activity toward negatively charged 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine and 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine/1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylserine vesicles. Vesicle size distribution of zwitterionic 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine changes faster than that of 1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine/1,2-dioleoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylserine 90:10 Apis mellifera ?

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
physiological function adsorption of PLA2 to model membranes is not primarily driven by electrostatic interactions. Subsequent lipid desorption, which is linked to the bilayer-disrupting activity of PLA2, is significantly affected by membrane electrostatics. Specifically, a nonhydrolytic bilayer-disrupting activity of PLA2 targets anionic membranes, triggering a change in bilayer topology Apis mellifera
