A portion of amino acids 32-62 from the human protein was used as the immunogen for the Phospholipase A2 antibody.
Secretory Phospholipase A2 is thought to participate in the regulation of the phospholipid metabolism in biomembranes including eicosanoid biosynthesis. Catalyzes the calcium-dependent hydrolysis of the 2- acyl groups in 3-sn-phosphoglycerides.
