Other Names | Phospholipase A2, membrane associated, 3.1.1.4, GIIC sPLA2, Group IIA phospholipase A2, Non-pancreatic secretory phospholipase A2, NPS-PLA2, Phosphatidylcholine 2-acylhydrolase 2A, PLA2G2A, PLA2B, PLA2L, RASF-A |
Target/Specificity | This PLA2G2A antibody is generated from a rabbit immunized with a KLH conjugated synthetic peptide between 106-135 amino acids from PLA2G2A. |
Dilution | WB~~1:2000 |
Format | Purified polyclonal antibody supplied in PBS with 0.09% (W/V) sodium azide. This antibody is purified through a protein A column, followed by peptide affinity purification. |
Storage | Maintain refrigerated at 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks. For long term storage store at -20°C in small aliquots to prevent freeze-thaw cycles. |
Precautions | PLA2G2A Antibody (C-Term) is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |

Synonyms | PLA2B, PLA2L, RASF-A |
Function | Catalyzes the calcium-dependent hydrolysis of the 2-acyl groups in 3-sn-phosphoglycerides (PubMed:2925633). Thought to participate in the regulation of phospholipid metabolism in biomembranes including eicosanoid biosynthesis. Independent of its catalytic activity, acts as a ligand for integrins (PubMed:18635536, PubMed:25398877). Binds to and activates integrins ITGAV:ITGB3, ITGA4:ITGB1 and ITGA5:ITGB1 (PubMed:18635536, PubMed:25398877). Binds to a site (site 2) which is distinct from the classical ligand-binding site (site 1) and induces integrin conformational changes and enhanced ligand binding to site 1 (PubMed:25398877). Induces cell proliferation in an integrin-dependent manner (PubMed:18635536). |
Cellular Location | Cell membrane; Peripheral membrane protein. Secreted |
