Journal ArticleDOI

Human ADP-ribosylation Factor-activated Phosphatidylcholine-specific Phospholipase D Defines a New and Highly Conserved Gene Family

TL;DR: The identification of the first human PLD cDNA is reported, which defines a new and highly conserved gene family and likely encodes the gene product responsible for the most widely studied endogenous PLD activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mutagenesis of phospholipase D defines a superfamily including a trans-Golgi viral protein required for poxvirus pathogenicity.

TL;DR: The results suggest that vaccinia virus and hPLD1 may act through analogous mechanisms to effect viral cellular egress and vesicular trafficking, respectively.
Journal ArticleDOI

The pleckstrin homology domain of phospholipase c-delta 1 binds with high affinity to phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate in bilayer membranes

TL;DR: The hypothesis that the intact PH domain, serving as a specific tether, directs PLC-delta 1 to membranes enriched in PI(4,5)P2 and permits the active site, located elsewhere in the protein, to hydrolyze multiple substrate molecules before this enzyme dissociates from the membrane surface is supported.
Journal ArticleDOI

PTEN Mutations as a Cause of Constitutive Insulin Sensitivity and Obesity

TL;DR: An apparently divergent effect of PTEN mutations is demonstrated: increased risks of obesity and cancer but a decreased risk of type 2 diabetes owing to enhanced insulin sensitivity.
