Identification and characterization of a phospholipase C activity in resident mouse peritoneal macrophages. Inhibition of the enzyme by phenothiazines

Identification and characterization of a phospholipase C activity in resident mouse peritoneal macrophages. Inhibition of the enzyme by phenothiazines

P D Wightman et al. Biochem J. .

Abstract

Resident mouse peritoneal macrophages contain a phospholipase C of high activity that is specific for phosphatidylinositol. The activity has a neutral pH optimum, is Ca(2+)-dependent and has a maximum reaction velocity of 525nmol/h per mg of protein. Certain phenothiazines are potent inhibitors of this activity.
