Release of arachidonic acid from 1-palmitoyl-2-arachidonoyl phosphatidylcholine (PAPC) by C. albicans lysates

Source of enzymatic activity Arachidonic acid liberation from PAPC (μM/min)
cPLA2 (0.25 IU) 2.4 ± 0.3 (5)
ATCC 44808 1.1 ± 0.2 (3)
KH44-13 0.55 ± 0.1 (3)
KH44-91 < 0.01 (3)
KH44-KL 0.73 ± 0.24 (3)

The values of arachidonic acid liberation represent the mean and ± SD of the indicated number of experiments (denoted in parentheses). Cytosolic PLA2 (cPLA2) was used as control. Experimental conditions are described in Materials and methods.
