Phospholipase B enzymes catalyse the release of fatty acids from lysophsopholipids and are capable in vitro of hydrolysing all phospholipids extractable form yeast cells [1]. Cytosolic phospholipase A2 associates with natural membranes in response to physiological increases in Ca2+ and selectively hydrolyses arachidonyl phospholipids [2], the aligned region corresponds the the carboxy-terminal Ca2+-independent catalytic domain of the protein as discussed in [2].

phospholipase A2 (group group IVA)  M-CSA #529

Cytosolic phospholipases A2 (cPLA2) are hydrolytic enzymes which catalyse the cleavage of the ester bond at the sn-2 position of phospholipid membranes to generate arachidonic acid, which is the precursor in the metabolic pathway of several lipid messengers, for instance, it is metabolised to prostaglandins by the cyclooxygenase pathway and to leukotrienes by the 5-lipooxygenase pathway. In addition, platelet-activating factor (PAF) can also be generated from a subset of the lysophospholipid produced.
