Western blot : Rabbit Monoclonal[EPR23994-103] to Calcium-independent Phospholipase A2/PLA2G6 ab259950 staining at 1/1000 dilution, shown in green; Mouse anti GAPDH (ab8245) loading control staining at 1/20,000 dilution, shown in magenta. A band was observed at 76 kDa in Wild-type U-87 MG cell lysates with no signal observed at this size in PLA2G6 knockout U-87 MG cell line. To generate this image, samples were run on an SDS-PAGE gel then transferred onto a nitrocellulose membrane. Membranes were blocked in 3 % Milk in TBS-0.1 % Tween® 20 (TBS-T) before incubation with primary antibodies overnight at 4 °C. Blots were washed four times in TBS-T, incubated with secondary antibodies for 1 h at room temperature, washed again four times then imaged. Secondary antibodies used were Goat anti-Rabbit 800CW & Goat anti-Mouse 680RD at 1/20,000 dilution.

Supplementary information

This supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.

The protein Calcium-independent Phospholipase A2 also known as iPLA2 or PLA2G6 is an important enzyme involved in phospholipid metabolism. This enzyme exhibits a catalytic function that does not require calcium for activation which distinguishes it from other members of the phospholipase A2 family. It possesses a molecular weight of approximately 85 kDa. This protein mainly expresses in cytosolic compartments within several tissues including the heart brain and pancreas playing a diverse role in cellular activities.
Biological function summary

The protein catalyzes the hydrolysis of ester bonds within phospholipids releasing free fatty acids and lysophospholipids. This enzyme does not operate as part of a larger complex but functions independently within the cell membrane and metabolic pathways. By regulating phospholipid turnover and remodeling the protein plays a vital role in membrane homeostasis and signaling. This remodeling contributes to cell survival and apoptosis depending on cellular needs and conditions.

Pathways

This enzyme interacts with lipid signaling and metabolism in central biological processes. It plays a significant role in the glycerophospholipid and arachidonic acid pathways. In these pathways iPLA2 is closely related to cyclooxygenase and lipoxygenase enzymes which convert arachidonic acid into prostaglandins and leukotrienes leading to the mediation of inflammation and other signaling pathways. This interaction emphasizes the enzyme's importance in both normal physiology and pathophysiological conditions.

Mutations or altered activities of iPLA2 have associations with neurodegenerative disorders such as Parkinson’s disease and infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy. In these disorders mitochondrial dysfunction often linked with proteins like alpha-synuclein becomes prevalent demonstrating the enzyme's influence on apoptosis and oxidative stress. Furthermore iPLA2 mutations may lead to cardiomyopathy where its function overlaps with creatine kinase and enzymes involved in energy metabolism indicating a broader impact on cardiac health.
