Abstract excerpt
Human non-pancreatic secretory phospholipase A2 (hnpsPLA2) catalyzes the sn-2 acyl hydrolysis of phospholipids. It was reported that hnpsPLA2 is involved in various diseases like inflammation, cancer, and so on. This enzyme also exhibits anti-bacterial and anti-virus activities. It is active over a broad pH range, with higher activity at alkaline conditions. In order to make it suitable as a potential...
