Antibodies are purified by protein A and peptide affinity chromatography.\n\u003cb\u003eBackground\u003c\/b\u003e\nPhospholipase A2 (PLA2) is a superfamily of enzymes that hydrolyze glycero-3-phosphocholines and release fatty acids and lysophospholipids (1). PLA2G1B is a member of this superfamily in the 1B group that is expressed most highly in the pancreatic acinar cells (2). Evidence suggests that PLA2G1B plays a role in the absorption and storage of extra energy as fats are metabolized (1,2). Lysophospholipids generated by PLA2G1B inhibit fatty acid oxidation in the liver and reduce energy expenditure, leading to diet-induced obesity and type 2 diabetes with a high fat diet (1). Therefore, a potential intervention of obesity and diabetes could target PLA2G1B in the digestive tract (2).\n\u003cb\u003eAlternate Names\u003c\/b\u003e\nGroup IB phospholipase A2; MGC119834; MGC119835; PA21B; Phosphatidylcholine 2-acylhydrolase 1B; Phospholipase A2; phospholipase A2 group IB; phospholipase A2, group IB (pancreas); PLA2; PLA2A; PLA2G1B; PPLA2\n\n\u003cb\u003eSpecification\u003c\/b\u003e\n\nREACTIVITY: H\nSENSITIVITY: Endogenous\nMW (kDa): 16\nSOURCE: Rabbit","brand":"CST","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46799991701673,"sku":"8962S","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/products\/cst-8962s","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
