Phospholipase of rat intestine: mode of action

Phospholipase activities of rat intestinal mucosa homogenate have been determined from lysophosphatidylcholines [14C] and phosphatidylcholines [-3H-14C]. In the presence of phosphatidylcholines, at pH 6.5, the homogenate has a phospholipase B activity. At pH 8.5, a phospholipase A2 activity was show...

Description
Summary:Phospholipase activities of rat intestinal mucosa homogenate have been determined from lysophosphatidylcholines [14C] and phosphatidylcholines [-3H-14C]. In the presence of phosphatidylcholines, at pH 6.5, the homogenate has a phospholipase B activity. At pH 8.5, a phospholipase A2 activity was shown. In the presence of lysophospatidylcholines, at pH 6.5, we notice a lysophospholipase A1 activity. A kinetic study of the reactions allows us to separate the activity B into a phospholipase A2 activity and a lysophospholipase A1 activity. Thus, it appears that the total phospholipase activity of rat intestinal mucosa would results from a phospholipase A2 activity and a lysophospholipase A1 activity.
