N. Baba et al., HYDROLYSIS OF GLYCEROPHOSPHOCHOLINE HYDROPEROXIDE BY PHOSPHOLIPASE-A(2), Bioscience, biotechnology, and biochemistry, 57(12), 1993, pp. 2200-2201
In a sodium deoxycholate micellar solution with calcium chloride, a sy
nthetic phospholipid hydroperoxide was hydrolyzed by porcine pancreati
c phospholipase A2 (PLA2) and the reactivity observed for the hydroper
oxide was demonstrated to be higher than the case with the unoxidized
form. In these systems, it was found that the hydroperoxy group did no
t directly activate the PLA2.
