Abstract：
:A human, 85-kDa arachidonoyl-specific, cytosolic phospholipase A2 was expressed using the baculovirus-insect cell expression system. Expression resulted in the production of an active protein which consisted of approximately 3% of the total protein in the host Spodoptera frugiperda (Sf9) cells at 67 h after infection. The phospholipase A2 was purified to apparent homogeneity and exhibited calcium-dependent phospholipase A2 activity with a specific activity of 8 mumol/min/mg protein, as well as calcium-independent lysophospholipase activity with a specific activity of 17 mumol/min/mg protein. The phospholipase A2 was expressed as a phosphoprotein and was primarily phosphorylated on serine residues. Phosphatase treatment of the recombinant phospholipase A2 resulted in dephosphorylation of the enzyme and a 63% decrease in phospholipase A2 activity. This decrease in activity is similar in magnitude to the decrease in activity observed with phosphatase-treated phospholipase A2 from stimulated mammalian cells. These data demonstrate that the 85-kDa phospholipase A2 is expressed as an activated phosphoprotein in Sf9 cells.
