This kits takes our stand-alone assay for phospholipase A1, PLA1 (A10070) and combines the necessary reagents to run 2 to 10 complete 96 well microplate assays that monitor activity in purified enzyme preparations and cell lysates. The importance of phospholipases in cellular signaling, lipid metabolism, inflammatory responses and pathological disorders related to these processes has stimulated demand for fluorescence-based activity monitoring methods. In particular the phospholipases resident in plasma and endothelium can perturb circulating LDL and HDL particles, creating pro-artherogenic forms. Recent evidence is drawing a link between these lipases and the progression of several severe neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer's. Molecular Probes' fluorogenic phospholipase A1 substrates is designed to provide continuous monitoring of phospholipase A1 (PLA1) in purified enzyme preparations, cell lysates and living cells. PLA-1 improves upon two existing reagents in two ways: first it is now PLA-1 specific and secondly it has improved the assay quality by decreasing initial background noise.

Abstract
Crystal structure of the predicted phospholipase LYPLAL1 reveals unexpected functional plasticity despite close relationship to acyl protein thioesterases.
Authors:Bürger M, Zimmermann TJ, Kondoh Y, Stege P, Watanabe N, Osada H, Waldmann H, Vetter IR,
Journal:J Lipid Res
PubMed ID:22052940
'Sequence homology indicates the existence of three human cytosolic acyl protein thioesterases, including APT1 that is known to depalmitoylate H- and N-Ras. One of them is the lysophospholipase-like 1 (LYPLAL1) protein that on the one hand is predicted to be closely related to APT1 but on the other hand might ... More
Furin Is the Primary in Vivo Convertase of Angiopoietin-like 3 and Endothelial Lipase in Hepatocytes.

'The proprotein convertases (PCs) furin, PC5/6, and PACE4 exhibit unique and/or complementary functions. Their knock-out (KO) in mice resulted in strong and specific phenotypes demonstrating that, in vivo, these PCs are unique and essential during development. However, they also exhibit redundant functions. Liver angiopoietin-like 3 (ANGPTL3) inhibits lipolysis by binding ... More
Measurement of the phospholipase activity of endothelial lipase in mouse plasma.
Authors:Basu D, Lei X, Josekutty J, Hussain MM, Jin W,
Journal:J Lipid Res
PubMed ID:23103358
Endothelial lipase (EL) is a major negative regulator of plasma HDL levels in mice, rabbits, and most probably, humans. Although this regulatory function is critically dependent on EL's hydrolysis of HDL phospholipids, as yet there is no phospholipase assay specific for EL in plasma. We developed such an assay for ... More
