Recombinant Human PLA2G2A Protein (Asn21-Cys144), His tagged

• Cat.No.: PLA2G2A-4923H
• Product Overview: Recombinant human PLA2G2A (Asn21-Cys144) fused with His tag was expressed in E. coli.

Specification

• Species: Human
• Source: E.coli
• Tag: His
• Protein Length: Asn21-Cys144
• Description: Secretory calcium-dependent phospholipase A2 that primarily targets extracellular phospholipids with implications in host antimicrobial defense, inflammatory response and tissue regeneration. Hydrolyzes the ester bond of the fatty acyl group attached at sn-2 position of phospholipids (phospholipase A2 activity) with preference for phosphatidylethanolamines and phosphatidylglycerols over phosphatidylcholines. Contributes to lipid remodeling of cellular membranes and generation of lipid mediators involved in pathogen clearance. Displays bactericidal activity against Gram-positive bacteria by directly hydrolyzing phospholipids of the bacterial membrane. Upon sterile inflammation, targets membrane phospholipids of extracellular mitochondria released from activated platelets, generating free unsaturated fatty acids such as arachidonate that is used by neighboring leukocytes to synthesize inflammatory eicosanoids such as leukotrienes.
