Abstract

Porcine pancreatic phospholipase A~2~ was purified from commercial pancreatin by a method involving heat denaturation, trichloroacetic acid precipitation, and DEAE‐cellulose chromatography. Assaying the eluate of the chromatography step by a new titrimetric method using vegetable lecithin‐albumin emulsion as the substrate, several species of phospholipase A were found. Some of these went undetected when the conventional egg yolk emulsion assay was used. Two phospholipases A~2~ were isolated in a homogeneous form and shown to have similar chemical and physical properties. Catalytic specificity of the two enzymes differs remarkably toward lecithins in different emulsified states.

Low-molecular-weight secretory phospholipases A 2 (sPLA 2 s) are a subgroup of PLA 2 s, which are secreted, bind to receptors, and may act as intercellular signaling modulators. At least 10 different groups have been characterized in mammals, and there is expanding evidence of the significance of sP

We described previously the cloning and DNA sequence of the human gene encoding pancreatic phospholipase A2 [DNA 5 , 5191. When pancreatic phospholipase A2 (PLA2) cDNA was used to screen a human genomic library, two classes of clones were obtained. One class encoded the pancreatic enzyme, and a seco

By means of the differential display method, we isolated a novel human gene that is expressed specifically in pancreas. The cDNA, designated ''pancpin,'' contained an open reading frame of 1,215 nucleotides encoding a 405 amino acid protein, showing a high degree of similarity to serine protease inh
