General description
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product has been enhanced for energy efficiency and waste prevention when used in biodiesel research. For more information see the article in biofiles.
Application
Phospholipase C (PLC) is used to study adrenoceptor-mediated transmembrane signaling. It is used to degrade inositol-containing phospholipids. Phospholipase C from Bacillus, product P6621, has been used to study how flhF affects the export of PLC and other secretory virulence factors.
The enzyme from Sigma has been used in the digestion of phosphatidylserine fraction of Schistosoma mansoni adult worms.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Hydrolyzes the phosphate bond on phosphatidylcholine and other glycerophospholipids yielding diacylglycerol; this enzyme will also hydrolyze the phosphate bonds of sphingomyelin, cardiolipin, choline plasmalogen and ceramide phospholipids.
Phospholipase C is induced by thrombin and platelet-activating factor, forming 1,2-diacylglycerol and phosphatidic acid. PLC hydrolyzes the phosphate bond on phosphatidylcholine and other glycerophospholipids yielding diacylglycerol; this enzyme will also hydrolyze the phosphate bonds of sphingomyelin, cardiolipin, choline plasmalogen and ceramide phospholipids.
Physical form
Lyophilized powder containing approx. 10% protein. Remainder; trehalose, zinc sulfate, and potassium phosphate
Other Notes
One unit will liberate 1.0 μmole of water soluble organic phosphorus from L-α-phosphatidylcholine per min at pH 7.3 at 37 °C.

The present study compares the molecular mechanism by which thrombin, platelet-activating factor, and epinephrine induce platelet activation. Thrombin and platelet-activating factor induce an initial activation of phospholipase C, as measured by formation of 1,2-diacylglycerol and phosphatidic acid, during platelet shape

Flagellar arrangement is a highly conserved feature within bacterial species. However, only a few genes regulating cell flagellation have been described in polar flagellate bacteria. This report demonstrates that the arrangement of flagella in the peritrichous flagellate Bacillus cereus is

Our studies on the alpha 1-adrenoceptor signaling have demonstrated that the Gh family is a signal mediator. We report here that a 69-kDa phospholipase C (PLC) is the effector in this signal pathway. The enzyme was isolated by dissociating a

The famous French dessert "ile flottante" consists of a sweet egg white foam floating on a vanilla custard cream, which contains highly nutritive raw materials, including milk, sugar and egg. Spoilage issues are therefore a key concern for the manufacturers.
