  • Title: Thioesterase and protein deacylase activities of porcine pancreatic phospholipase A2.
    Author: Nocito M, Roy G, Villar LM, Palacios C, Serrano A, Alvarez-Cermeño JC, González-Porqué P.
    Journal: Biochim Biophys Acta; 1996 Jan 05; 1299(1):17-22. PubMed ID: 8555248.
    Abstract:
    The thioesterase activity of porcine pancreatic phospholipase A2 has been investigated with non-phospholipid substrates. The acyl-CoA hydrolase activity towards acyl-CoA derivatives is specific for long chain fatty acids (14 C, 16 C) but is unable to hydrolyze short chain acyl-CoA compounds (below 8 C). The same enzyme also shows protein deacylase activity liberating [3H]palmitic acid from [3H]palmitoyl-acyl carrier protein.
