Background | phospholipase A2, also known as Phosphatidylcholine 2-acylhydrolase 1B, Group IB phospholipase A2, PLA2 and PLA2G1B, is a secreted protein which belongs to thephospholipase A2 family. Phospholipase A2 / PLA2G1B catalyzes the release of fatty acids from glycero-3-phosphocholines. The best known varieties are the digestive enzymes secreted as zymogens by the pancreas of mammals. Sequences of pancreatic Phospholipase A2 / PLA2G1B enzymes from a variety of mammals have been reported. One striking feature of these enzymes is their close homology to venom phospholipases of snakes. Other forms of Phospholipase A2 / PLA2G1B have been isolated from brain, liver, lung, spleen, intestine, macrophages, leukocytes, erythrocytes, inflammatory exudates, chondrocytes, and platelets. Mice lacking in Phospholipase A2 / PLA2G1B are resistant to obesity and diabetes induced by feeding a diabetogenic high-fat/high-carbohydrate diet. Oral supplementation of a diabetogenic diet with the PLA2G1B inhibitor methyl indoxam effectively suppresses diet-induced obesity and diabetes. PLA2G1B inhibition may be a potentially effective oral therapeutic option for treatment of obesity and diabetes. |
Description | A DNA sequence encoding the human PLA2G1B (NP_000919.1) (Met 1-Ser 148) with a C-terminal His tag was expressed. |
Source | HEK293 |
Predicted N Terminal | Asp 16 |
AA Sequence | Met 1-Ser 148 |
Molecular Weight | The recombinant human PLA2G1B comprises 144 a.a. after removal of the signal peptide, and has a predicted molecular mass of 16.2 kDa. rh PLA2G1B migrates as an approximately 19 kDa band in SDS-PAGE under reducing conditions. |
Purity | >92% as determined by SDS-PAGE |
Endotoxin | < 1.0 EU per μg of the protein as determined by the LAL method |
Bioactivity | Measured by its ability to hydrolyze 1-Hexadecanoyl-2-(1-pyrenedecanoyl)-sn-glycero-3-phosphomethanol.The specific activity is >2,500 pmol/min/ug. |
Formulation | Lyophilized from sterile 10mM Tris, 5mM CaCl2, pH 8.0. |
Stability | The recombinant proteins are stable for up to 1 year from date of receipt at -70°C. |
Usage | For Research Use Only |
Storage | Store the protein under sterile conditions at -20°C to -80°C. It is recommended that the protein be aliquoted for optimal storage. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. |
