Description

Phospholipase A2s (PLA2s) constitute a family of esterases that hydrolyze the sn-2-acyl ester bond in glycerophospholipid molecules. These enzymes are generally calcium-dependent and have been found both intra- and extracellularly. By hydrolyzing the sn-2 bond in glycerophospholipids, PLA2s release fatty acids. One such fatty acid, arachidonic acid, generates the substrates for the initiation of the arachidonic acid cascade that produces various eicosanoids, many of which are potent mediators of inflammation. As a member of the PLA2 family, group IB sPLA2, also known as PLA2G1B (phospholipase A2, group IB), is a 148 amino acid secreted protein that is expressed in the pancreas. Group IB sPLA2 catalyzes the reaction of phosphatidylcholine and water into 1-acylglycerophosphocholine and carboxylate, and may play a role in obesity and insulin resistance.
