Abstract

Recently, we identified a novel calcium-independent, plasmalogen-selective phospholipase A2 activity in canine myocardial cytosol which represents the major measurable phospholipase A2 activity in myocardial homogenates (Wolf, R. A., and Gross, R. W. (1985) J. Biol. Chem. 260, 7295-7303). We now report the 154,000-fold purification of this phospholipase A2 to homogeneity through utilization of sequential anion exchange, chromatofocusing, affinity, Mono Q, and hydroxylapatite chromatographies. The purified enzyme had a molecular mass of 40 kDa, possessed a specific activity of 227 mumol/mg min, had a pH optimum of 6.4, and catalyzed the regiospecific cleavage of the sn-2 fatty acid from diradyl glycerophospholipids. The purified polypeptide was remarkable for its ability to selectively hydrolyze plasmenylcholine in homogeneous vesicles (subclass rank order: plasmenylcholine greater than alkyl-ether choline glycerophospholipid greater than phosphatidylcholine) as well as in mixed bilayers comprised of equimolar plasmenylcholine/phosphatidylcholine. Purified myocardial phospholipase A2 also possessed selectivity for hydrolysis of phospholipids containing arachidonic acid at the sn-2 position in comparison to oleic or palmitic acid. Taken together, these results constitute the first purification of a calcium-independent phospholipase with absolute regiospecificity for cleavage of the sn-2 acyl linkage in diradyl glycerophospholipids and demonstrate that myocardial phospholipase A2 has kinetic characteristics which are anticipated to result in the selective hydrolysis of sarcolemmal phospholipids during myocardial ischemia.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
