Secretory phopholipase A2 (PLA2) enzymes cleave an acyl ester bond in the sn-2 position of glycerophospholipids. These extracellular proteins have a high disulfide bond content, low molecular mass (14 kDa), and require mM levels of Ca2+ for catalysis. They play a crucial role in the generation of arachidonates and eicosanoids, and have a number of biological actions including immunological responses, inflammation, cellular proliferation, vasoconstriction, and bronchioconstriction.

Q: Hi. Actually I want to purchase anti cPLA2 antibody raised in rabbit which can bind to both phorphorylated and unphosphorylated mouse cPLA2 group IV. I want to a gel shift assay with western blotting to show that my protein of interest is causing the phosphorylation of cPLA2 inside the mouse macrophages RAW cells.Can you please tell me which antibody would be suitable for the purpose. Thanks a lot.
A: Here are our antibodies raised in rabbit that have been validated to detect cPLA2 in mouse samples in a western blot. We have not specifically confirmed the ability of these antibodies to detect both the phosphorylated and unphosphorylated forms of the protein, and I cannot guarantee that they will clearly differentiate between the two.
