Rat brain and liver soluble phospholipase C: resolution of two forms with different requirements for calcium. 1985

H Nakanishi, and H Nomura, and U Kikkawa, and A Kishimoto, and Y Nishizuka

Two forms of phospholipase C, hydrolyzing specifically inositol phospholipids, are resoluted and partially purified from rat brain as well as liver cytosol by DEAE-cellulose followed by heparin-Sepharose, Sephacryl S-400, and aminohexyl-Sepharose column chromatographies. With phosphatidylinositol as substrate, at pH 7.4 one is most active at 10(-6) M Ca2+ (Type I) whereas the other requires 10(-3) M Ca2+ (Type II). At pH 5.5 both Type I and II are active at 10(-3) M Ca2+ but essentially inactive at lower concentrations of this divalent cation. Both Type I and II hydrolyze preferentially polyphosphoinositides particularly at lower concentrations of Ca2+.

D010738 Type C Phospholipases A subclass of phospholipases that hydrolyze the phosphoester bond found in the third position of GLYCEROPHOSPHOLIPIDS. Although the singular term phospholipase C specifically refers to an enzyme that catalyzes the hydrolysis of PHOSPHATIDYLCHOLINE (EC 3.1.4.3), it is commonly used in the literature to refer to broad variety of enzymes that specifically catalyze the hydrolysis of PHOSPHATIDYLINOSITOLS.

D002118 Calcium A basic element found in nearly all tissues. It is a member of the alkaline earth family of metals with the atomic symbol Ca, atomic number 20, and atomic weight 40. Calcium is the most abundant mineral in the body and combines with phosphorus to form calcium phosphate in the bones and teeth. It is essential for the normal functioning of nerves and muscles and plays a role in blood coagulation (as factor IV) and in many enzymatic processes.
