Phospholipase activities in subcellular fractions of human platelets. 1979

G Trugnan, and G Bereziat, and M C Manier, and J Polonovski

A homogenate of human platelets was fractionated by zonal ultracentrifugation into membranes, various granules and mitochondria. The membrane fraction was composed of two populations. The first, which represented 75% of the proteins, was rich in plasma membranes; the second, which represented the remaining 25%, was rich in microsomal membranes. Lysophospholipase was essentially localised in the cytosol. Phospholipase A1 which was only weakly bound to membranes, was mostly found in the soluble fraction (75%); the remainder was located in the plasma membranes and the mitochondria. Two-thirds of the phospholipase A2 was found in the particulate fractions.
