Molecular Characterization of Two Genes Encoding Novel Ca<sup>2+</sup>-Independent Phospholipase A2s from the Silkworm, <i>Bombyx mori</i>

Eicosanoids are crucial downstream signals in the insect immune responses. Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) catalyzes phospholipids, the initial step in eicosanoid biosynthesis. In mammals, the biological roles of <i>Ca<sup>2+</sup>-independent Phospholipase A2 (iPLA2)</i> have been e...
