Structural basis of phosphatidylcholine recognition by the C2–domain of cytosolic phospholipase A2α

Structural basis of phosphatidylcholine recognition by the C2–domain of cytosolic phospholipase A2α

Ca2+-stimulated translocation of cytosolic phospholipase A2α (cPLA2α) to the Golgi induces arachidonic acid production, the rate-limiting step in pro-inflammatory eicosanoid synthesis. Structural insights into the cPLA2α preference for phosphatidylcholine (PC)-enriched membranes have remained elusiv...
