โฆ Synopsis
The existence of multiple forms of phopholipase D was clearly established in a large number of biochemical studies that described and characterized the enzymological properties of the different PLD activities. This review summarizes the in ritro evidence showing differential subcellular localization and chromatographic properties ofputat ive PLD isozymes, their phospholipid and alcohol substrate specificities, their modulation by various divalent cations, small G proteins and protein kinase c isozymes, and the role of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate as a cofactor of phospholipase D.

Phospholipase D (PLD) is activated in mammalian cells in response to diverse stimuli that include growth factors, activators of protein kinase C, and agonists binding to G-protein-coupled receptors. Two forms of mammalian PLD, PLD1 and PLD2, have been identified. Expression of mRNA and protein for P
During recent years techniques have been evolved which permit the development of embryonic mouse cleavage stages in vitro. These methods are now sufficiently reliable for use in quantitative experiments such as the mapping of concentration-response surfaces to discover the interaction of effects pro
