Chain length specificity for activation of cPLA2α by C1P: use of the dodecane delivery system to determine lipid-specific effects

Previously, our laboratory demonstrated that ceramide-1-phosphate (C1P) specifically activated group IVA cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2α) in vitro. In this study, we investigated the chain length specificity of this interaction. C1P with an acyl-chain of ≥6 carbons efficiently activated cPLA2α in...
