Abstract
Venom and mammalian secreted phospholipases A(2) (sPLA(2)s) have been associated with numerous physiological, pathological, and toxic processes. So far, structurally related group I and II sPLA(2)s have been found in vertebrates such as mammals and snakes, whereas group III sPLA(2)s have mainly been found in venom from invertebrates such as bees and scorpions. Here we report the cloning and expression of a cDNA coding for a human group III (hGIII) sPLA(2). The full-length cDNA codes for a signal peptide of 19 residues followed by a protein of 490 amino acids made up of a central sPLA(2) domain (141 residues) flanked by large N- and C-terminal regions (130 and 219 residues, respectively). The sPLA(2) domain is 31% identical to bee venom sPLA(2) and displays all of the features of group III sPLA(2)s including 10 cysteines. The hGIII sPLA(2) gene consists of at least 7 exons and maps to chromosome 22q. By Northern blot analysis, a 4.4-kilobase hGIII transcript was found in kidney, heart, liver, and skeletal muscle. Transfection of hGIII sPLA(2) cDNA in COS cells led to accumulation of sPLA(2) activity in the culture medium, indicating that the cDNA codes for a secreted enzyme. Using small unilamellar vesicles as substrate, hGIII sPLA(2) was found to be a Ca(2+)-dependent enzyme showing an 11-fold preference for phosphatidylglycerol over phosphatidylcholine and optimal activity at pH 8.

Abstract
Myotoxic phospholipases A(2) (PLA(2)s; group II) account for most of the muscle-tissue damage that results from envenomation by viperid snakes. In the venom of the Godman's viper (Cerrophidion godmani, formerly Bothrops godmani), an enzymically active PLA(2) (myotoxin I) and an inactive, Lys-49 variant (myotoxin II) induce extensive muscle damage and oedema. In this study, two distinct myotoxin inhibitor proteins of C. godmani, CgMIP-I and CgMIP-II, were purified directly from blood plasma by selective binding to affinity columns containing either myotoxin I or myotoxin II, respectively. Both proteins are glycosylated, acidic (pI=4) and composed of 20-25-kDa subunits that form oligomers of 110 kDa (CgMIP-I) or 180 kDa (CgMIP-II). In inhibition studies, CgMIP-I specifically neutralized the PLA(2) and the myotoxic, oedema-forming and cytolytic activities of myotoxins I, whereas CgMIP-II selectively inhibited the toxic properties of myotoxin II. N-terminal amino acid sequence analysis and sequencing of cDNAs encoding the two inhibitors revealed that CgMIP-I is similar to gamma-type inhibitors, which share a pattern of cysteine residues present in the Ly-6 superfamily of proteins, whereas CgMIP-II shares sequence identity with alpha-type inhibitors that contain carbohydrate-recognition-like domains, also found in C-type lectins and mammalian PLA(2) receptors. N-terminal sequencing of myotoxin I revealed a different primary structure from myotoxin II [De Sousa, Morhy, Arni, Ward, Díaz and Gutiérrez (1998) Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1384, 204-208], which provides insight into the nature of such pharmacological specificity.

Abstract
Mammalian secreted phospholipases A(2) (sPLA2s) comprise a group of at least eight enzymes, including the recently identified group X sPLA2. A bacterial expression system was developed to produce human group X sPLA2 (hGX). Inhibition studies show that the sPLA2 inhibitor LY311727 binds modestly more tightly to human group IIA sPLA2 than to hGX and that a pyrazole-based inhibitor of group IIA sPLA2 is much less active against hGX. The phospholipid head group preference of vesicle-bound hGX was determined. hGX binds tightly to phosphatidylcholine vesicles, which is thought to be required to act efficiently on cells. Tryptophan 67 hGX makes a significant contribution to interfacial binding to zwitterionic vesicles. As little as 10 ng/ml hGX releases arachidonic acid for cyclooxygenase-2- dependent prostaglandin E(2) generation when added exogenously to adherent mammalian cells. In contrast, human group IIA, rat group V, and mouse group IB sPLA2s are virtually inactive at releasing arachidonate when added exogenously to adherent cells. Dislodging cells from the growth surface enhances the ability of all the sPLA2s to release fatty acids. Studies with CHO-K1 cell mutants show that binding of sPLA2s to glycosaminoglycans is not the basis for poor plasma membrane hydrolysis by group IB, IIA, and V sPLA2s.

Abstract
The secretory phospholipases A2 (sPLA2) OS2 (10, 20 and 50 pmol) or OS1, (50 pmol) purified from taipan snake Oxyuranus scutellatus scutellatus venom, and the excitatory amino acid glutamate (Glu) (2.5 and 5.0 micromol) were injected into the right striatum of male Wistar rats. Injection of 10 and 20 pmol OS2 caused no neurological abnormalities or tissue damage. OS2 (50 pmol) caused apathy and circling towards the injection side. Histology revealed an infarct at the injection site. Injection of 50 pmol OS1 showed very little or no signs of neurotoxicity. Injection of 2.5 micromol Glu caused no tissue damage or neurological abnormality. After injection of 5.0 micromol Glu, the animals initially circled towards the side of injection, and gradually developed generalized clonic convulsions. These animals showed a well demarcated striatal infarct. When non-toxic concentrations of 20 pmol OS2 and 2.5 micromol Glu were co-injected, a synergistic neurotoxicity was observed. Extensive histological damage occurred in the entire right hemisphere, and in several rats comprising part of the contralateral hemisphere. These animals were apathetic in the immediate hours following injection, with circling towards the side of injection in the following days. Thus, OS2 greatly potentiates glutamate excitoxicity in vivo.

Abstract
Over the last decade, an expanding diversity of secreted phospholipases A(2) (sPLA(2)s) has been identified in mammals. Here, we report the cloning in mice of three additional sPLA(2)s called mouse group IIE (mGIIE), IIF (mGIIF), and X (mGX) sPLA(2)s, thus giving rise to eight distinct sPLA(2)s in this species. Both mGIIE and mGIIF sPLA(2)s contain the typical cysteines of group II sPLA(2)s, but have relatively low levels of identity (less than 51%) with other mouse sPLA(2)s, indicating that these enzymes are novel group II sPLA(2)s. However, a unique feature of mGIIF sPLA(2) is the presence of a C-terminal extension of 23 amino acids containing a single cysteine. mGX sPLA(2) has 72% identity with the previously cloned human group X (hGX) sPLA(2) and displays similar structural features, making it likely that mGX sPLA(2) is the ortholog of hGX sPLA(2). Genes for mGIIE and mGIIF sPLA(2)s are located on chromosome 4, and that of mGX sPLA(2) on chromosome 16. Northern and dot blot experiments with 22 tissues indicate that all eight mouse sPLA(2)s have different tissue distributions, suggesting specific functions for each. mGIIE sPLA(2) is highly expressed in uterus, and at lower levels in various other tissues. mGIIF sPLA(2) is strongly expressed during embryogenesis and in adult testis. mGX sPLA(2) is mostly expressed in adult testis and stomach. When the cDNAs for the eight mouse sPLA(2)s were transiently transfected in COS cells, sPLA(2) activity was found to accumulate in cell medium, indicating that each enzyme is secreted and catalytically active. Using COS cell medium as a source of enzymes, pH rate profile and phospholipid headgroup specificity of the novel sPLA(2)s were analyzed and compared with the other mouse sPLA(2)s.

Abstract
Mammalian and venom secreted phospholipases A(2) (sPLA(2)s) have been associated with a variety of biological effects. Here we show that several sPLA(2)s protect human primary blood leukocytes from the replication of various macrophage and T cell-tropic HIV-1 strains. Inhibition by sPLA(2)s results neither from a virucidal effect nor from a cytotoxic effect on host cells, but it involves a more specific mechanism. sPLA(2)s have no effect on virus binding to cells nor on syncytia formation, but they prevent the intracellular release of the viral capsid protein, suggesting that sPLA(2)s block viral entry into cells before virion uncoating and independently of the coreceptor usage. Various inhibitors and catalytic products of sPLA(2) have no effect on HIV-1 infection, suggesting that sPLA(2) catalytic activity is not involved in the antiviral effect. Instead, the antiviral activity appears to involve a specific interaction of sPLA(2)s to host cells. Indeed, of 11 sPLA(2)s from venom and mammalian tissues assayed, 4 venom sPLA(2)s were found to be very potent HIV-1 inhibitors (ID(50) < 1 nM) and also to bind specifically to host cells with high affinities (K(0.5) < 1 nM). Although mammalian pancreatic group IB and inflammatory-type group IIA sPLA(2)s were inactive against HIV-1 replication, our results could be of physiological interest, as novel sPLA(2)s are being characterized in humans.

Abstract
Secreted phospholipases A2 (sPLA2s) form a class of structurally related enzymes that are involved in a variety of physiological and pathological effects including inflammation and associated diseases, cell proliferation, cell adhesion, and cancer, and are now known to bind to specific membrane receptors. Here, we report the cloning and expression of a novel sPLA2 isolated from mouse thymus. Based on its structural features, this sPLA2 is most similar to the previously cloned mouse group IIA sPLA2 (mGIIA sPLA2). As for mGIIA sPLA2, the novel sPLA2 is made up of 125 amino acids with 14 cysteines, is basic (pI = 8.71) and its gene has been mapped to mouse chromosome 4. However, the novel sPLA2 has only 48% identity with mGIIA and displays similar levels of identity with the other mouse group IIC and V sPLA2s, indicating that the novel sPLA2 is not an isoform of mGIIA sPLA2. This novel sPLA2 has thus been called mouse group IID (mGIID) sPLA2. In further contrast with mGIIA, which is found mainly in intestine, transcripts coding for mGIID sPLA2 are found in several tissues including pancreas, spleen, thymus, skin, lung, and ovary, suggesting distinct functions for the two enzymes. Recombinant expression of mGIID sPLA2 in Escherichia coli indicates that the cloned sPLA2 is an active enzyme that has much lower specific activity than mGIIA and displays a distinct specificity for binding to various phospholipid vesicles. Finally, recombinant mGIID sPLA2 did not bind to the mouse M-type sPLA2 receptor, while mGIIA was previously found to bind to this receptor with high affinity.

Abstract
Phospholipases A2 (PLA2s) are enzymes that catalyse the hydrolysis of the sn-2 acyl bond of glycerophospholipids to produce free fatty acids and lysophospholipids. Numerous intracellular and secreted PLA2s (sPLA2s) have now been characterized. Because PLA2 products are important for cell signalling and the biosynthesis of biologically active lipids, including eicosanoids and platelet-activating factor, PLA2s are generally considered as key enzymes that control the release of lipid mediator precursors. However, the increasing number of mammalian sPLA2s and the recent identification of different membrane proteins that bind sPLA2s makes it likely that these enzymes also behave as ligands for receptors, and that their physiological function is not limited to their catalytic activity. Here, the current state of awareness regarding the different types of sPLA2-binding proteins is described. To date, five distinct mammalian sPLA2s and two main types (M and N) of sPLA2 receptors have been identified. Because most is known about the M-type receptor, particular attention will be paid to it, including a description of it molecular properties and of its possible biological roles with regard to sPLA2 function.

Abstract
Snake venom and mammalian secreted phospholipases A2 (sPLA2s) have been associated with toxic (neurotoxicity, myotoxicity, etc.), pathological (inflammation, cancer, etc.), and physiological (proliferation, contraction, secretion, etc.) processes. Specific membrane receptors (M and N types) for sPLA2s have been initially identified with snake venom sPLA2s as ligands, and the M-type 180-kDa receptor was cloned from different animal species. This paper addresses the problem of the endogenous ligands of the M-type receptor. Recombinant group IB and group IIA sPLA2s from human and mouse species have been prepared and analyzed for their binding properties to M-type receptors from different animal species. Both mouse group IB and group IIA sPLA2s are high affinity ligands (in the 1-10 nM range) for the mouse M-type receptor. These two sPLA2s are expressed in the mouse tissues where the M-type receptor is also expressed, making it likely that both types of sPLA2s are physiological ligands of the mouse M-type receptor. This conclusion does not hold for human group IB and IIA sPLA2s and the cloned human M-type receptor. The two mouse sPLA2s have relatively high affinities for the mouse M-type receptor, but they can have much lower affinities for receptors from other animal species, indicating that species specificity exists for sPLA2 binding to M-type receptors. Caution should thus be exerted in avoiding mixing sPLA2s, cells, or tissues from different animal species in studies of the biological roles of mammalian sPLA2s associated with an action through their membrane receptors.

Abstract
Secretory phospholipases A2 (sPLA2s) represent a rapidly expanding family of structurally related enzymes found in mammals as well as in insect and snake venoms. In this report, a cDNA coding for a novel sPLA2 has been isolated from human fetal lung, and its gene has been mapped to chromosome 16p13.1-p12. The mature sPLA2 protein has a molecular mass of 13.6 kDa, is acidic (pI 5.3), and made up of 123 amino acids. Key structural features of the sPLA2 include: (i) a long prepropeptide ending with an arginine doublet, (ii) 16 cysteines located at positions that are characteristic of both group I and group II sPLA2s, (iii) a C-terminal extension typical of group II sPLA2s, (iv) and the absence of elapid and pancreatic loops that are characteristic of group I sPLA2s. Based on these structural properties, this sPLA2 appears as a first member of a new group of sPLA2s, called group X. A 1.5-kilobase transcript coding for the human group X (hGX) sPLA2 was found in spleen, thymus, and peripheral blood leukocytes, while a less abundant 0.8-kilobase transcript was detected in the pancreas, lung, and colon. When the hGX sPLA2 cDNA was expressed in COS cells, sPLA2 activity preferentially accumulated in the culture medium, indicating that hGX sPLA2 is an actively secreted enzyme. It is maximally active at physiological pH and with 10 mM Ca2+. hGX sPLA2 prefers phosphatidylethanolamine and phosphatidylcholine liposomes to those of phosphatidylserine.

Abstract
We have shown previously that neurotoxic venom secretory phospholipases A2 (sPLA2s) have specific receptors in brain membranes called N-type receptors that are likely to play a role in the molecular events leading to neurotoxicity of these proteins. The sPLA2 found in honey bee venom is neurotoxic and binds to this receptor with high affinity. In this paper, we have used a number of mutants of bee venom sPLA2 produced in Escherichia coli to determine the structural elements of this protein that are involved in its binding to N-type receptors. Mutations in the interfacial binding surface, in the Ca2+-binding loop and in the hydrophobic channel lead to a dramatic decrease in binding to N-type receptors, whereas mutations of surface residues localized in other parts of the sPLA2 structure do not significantly modify the binding properties. Neurotoxicity experiments show that mutants with low affinity for N-type receptors are devoid of neurotoxic properties, even though some of them retain high enzymatic activity. These results provide further evidence for the involvement of N-type receptors in neurotoxic processes associated with venom sPLA2s and identify the surface region surrounding the hydrophobic channel of bee venom sPLA2 as the N-type receptor recognition domain.

Abstract
Three phospholipase A2 (PLA2s), OS1 and OS1 purified from the taipan snake venom Oxyuranus scutellatus scutellatus and bee venom PLA2 were injected to rats by the intracerebroventricular route. OS1 showed no sign of neurotoxicity at doses at which OS2 and bee venom PLA2 produced multiform dose-dependent behavioural effects including motor disturbances (stereotyped movements), compulsive scratching, convulsions and breathing difficulties. EEG recordings showed at the very time when the animal was motionless the induction of several episodes of a low frequency hippocampal theta rhythm, index of long-term changes in synaptic neuroplasticity. Spike-wave discharges were also produced but the occurrence was not systematic. These seizures were often accompanied with behavioural convulsions. Blockers of NMDA receptors and drugs modifying the GABAergic transmission could not abolish the neurotoxic effects of PLA2s except for diazepam (10 mg/kg intraperitoneally) that prevented only OS2-induced disturbances. Blockers of L-type Ca2+ channels and K+ channel openers were also without effect. The toxicity of OS2 and bee venom PLA2 is probably due to their initial specific binding to their neuronal receptor sites.

Abstract
Endocytic properties of the M-type 180-kDa receptor for secretory phospholipases A2 (sPLA2) were first investigated in rabbit myocytes that express it at high levels. Internalization of the receptor was shown to be clathrin-coated pit-mediated, rapid (ke = 0.1 min-1), and ligand-independent. The signal sequence for internalization was then identified upon transient and stable expression of various receptor constructs with mutated cytoplasmic sequences. Analysis of the internalization efficiency of the mutants suggested that the NSYY motif encodes the major endocytic signal, with the distal tyrosine residue playing the key role. Amino acid substitutions at the putative casein kinase II phosphorylation site of the receptor did not affect internalization. A chimeric protein composed of the extracellular and transmembrane domains of the rabbit sPLA2 receptor and of the cytoplasmic domain of the structurally homologous human macrophage mannose receptor retained the high affinity for sPLA2 and was internalization competent, exhibiting 50% endocytic activity of the M-type sPLA2 receptor. The results indicate the compatibility of the structural domains of the two parent proteins and provide evidence for the interchangeable character of their internalization signals.

Abstract
The rabbit muscle (M)-type receptor for secretory phospholipases A2 (sPLA2s) has a large extracellular domain of 1394 amino acids, composed of an N-terminal cysteine-rich domain, a fibronectin-like type II domain, and eight carbohydrate recognition domains (CRDs). It is thought to mediate some of the physiological effects of mammalian sPLA2s, including vascular smooth muscle contraction and cell proliferation, and is able to internalize sPLA2s. Here, we show by site-directed mutagenesis that OS1, a snake venom sPLA2, binds to the receptor via its CRDs and that deletion of CRD 5 completely abolishes the binding of sPLA2s. Moreover, a receptor lacking all CRDs but CRD 5 was still able to bind OS1 although with a lower affinity. Deletion of CRDs 4 and 6, surrounding the CRD 5, slightly reduced the affinity for OS1, thus suggesting that these CRDs are also involved in the binding of OS1. The M-type sPLA2 receptor and the macrophage mannose receptor are homologous and are predicted to share the same tertiary structure. p-Aminophenyl-alpha-D-mannopyranoside bovine serum albumin, a known ligand of the macrophage mannose receptor, binds to the M-type sPLA2 receptor essentially via CRDs 3-6.

Abstract
1. Monochain (OS2) and multichain (taipoxin) neurotoxic phospholipases A2 (PLA2), purified from taipan snake venom, both inhibited ACh release at a concentration of 20 nM (90% inhibition in 2 h) at an identified synapse from buccal ganglion of Aplysia californica. 2. The Na+ current was unchanged upon application of either OS2 or taipoxin. Conversely, presynaptic K+ currents (IA and IK) were increased by taipoxin but not by OS2. In addition, OS2 induced a significant decrease of the presynaptic Ca2+ current (30%) while taipoxin increased this latter current by 20-30%. 3. Bee venom PLA2, another monochain neurotoxic PLA2, also inhibited ACh release while non-toxic enzymatically active PLA2s like OS1 (also purified from taipan snake venom) or porcine pancreatic PLA2 elicited a much weaker inhibition of ACh release, suggesting a specific action of neurotoxic PLA2s versus non-toxic PLA2s on ACh release. 4. Using iodinated OS2, specific high affinity binding sites with molecular masses of 140 and 18 kDa have been identified on Aplysia ganglia. The maximal binding capacities were 55 and 300-400 fmol (mg protein)-1 for membrane preparations from whole and buccal ganglia, respectively. These binding sites are of high affinity for neurotoxic PLA2s (Kd values, 100-800 pM) and of very low affinity for non-toxic PLA2s (Kd values in the micromolar range), thus indicating that these binding sites are presumably involved in the blockade of ACh release by neurotoxic PLA2s.

Abstract
M-type (180 kDa) receptors for secretory phospholipases A2 (sPLA2s) are thought to mediate some of the physiological effects of group I sPLA2, including smooth muscle contraction and cell proliferation. The M-type sPLA2 receptor is a large glycoprotein composed of several distinct extracellular domains which belongs to the C-type lectin superfamily. This receptor binds with high affinity both pancreatic group I and inflammatory group II sPLA2s as well as various sPLA2s purified from snake venoms. This paper shows that the rabbit M-type sPLA2 receptor is a multifunctional protein which is able to promote cell adhesion on type I and IV collagens most probably via its N-terminal fibronectin-like type II domain. It also shows that binding of sPLA2s to a recombinant soluble form of this receptor is associated with a noncompetitive inhibition of phospholipase A2 activity.

Abstract
Secretory phospholipases A2 (sPLA2) are structurally related enzymes found in mammals as well as in insect and snake venoms. They have been associated with several physiological, pathological, and toxic processes. Some of these effects are apparently linked to the existence of specific receptors for both venom and mammalian sPLA2s. We report here the molecular cloning and expression of one of these sPLA2 receptors from human kidney. Two transcripts were detected. One encodes for a transmembrane form of the sPLA2 receptor and the other one is an alternatively processed transcript, caused by polyadenylation occurring at a site within an intron in the C terminus part of the transcriptional unit. This transcript encodes for a shortened secreted soluble sPLA2 receptor lacking the coding region for the transmembrane segment. Quantitative polymerase chain reaction experiments indicate a 1.6:1 ratio between the levels of transcripts encoding for the membrane-bound and soluble forms of the receptor, respectively. Soluble and membrane-bound human sPLA2 receptors both bind sPLA2 with high affinities. However, the binding properties of the human receptors are different from those obtained with the rabbit membrane-bound sPLA2 receptor. The 180-kDa human sPLA2 receptor gene has been mapped in the q23-q24 bands of chromosome 2.

Abstract
Specific membrane receptors for secretory phospholipases A2 (sPLA2s) have been initially identified with novel snake venom sPLA2s called OS1 and OS2. One of these sPLA2 receptors (muscle (M)-type, 180 kDa) has a very high affinity for OS1 and OS2 and a high affinity for pancreatic and inflammatory-type mammalian sPLA2s, which might be the natural endogenous ligands of PLA2 receptors. Primary structures of OS1 and OS2 were determined and compared with sequences of other sPLA2s that bind less tightly or do not bind to the M-type receptor. In addition, the binding properties of pancreatic sPLA2 mutants to the M-type receptor have been analyzed. Residues within or close to the Ca(2+)-binding loop of pancreatic sPLA2 are crucially involved in the binding step, although the presence of Ca2+ that is essential for the enzymatic activity is not required for binding to the receptor. These residues include Gly-30 and Asp-49, which are conserved in all sPLA2s. Leu-31 is also essential for binding of pancreatic sPLA2 to its receptor. Many other mutations have been considered. Those occurring in the N-terminal alpha helices and the pancreatic loop do not change binding to the M-type receptor. Conversion of pancreatic prophospholipase to phospholipase is essential for the acquisition of binding properties to the M-type receptor.

Abstract
Snake venom and mammalian secretory phospholipases A2 are structurally related enzymes that have been associated with several toxic (neurotoxicity, myotoxicity, etc.), pathological (inflammation, hypersensitivity, etc.), or physiological (contraction, proliferation, etc.) processes. We have previously shown that snake venom PLA2s have specific high affinity receptors. Here, we report the molecular cloning of one of these PLA2 receptors (molecular mass approximately 180 kDa), previously purified from rabbit skeletal muscle. It is a membrane protein with a N-terminal cysteine-rich domain, a fibronectin type II domain, eight repeats of a carbohydrate recognition domain, a unique transmembrane domain, and a intracellular C-terminal domain. The 1458-residue PLA2 receptor, expressed in transfected cells, binds svPLA2 with very high affinities (Kd values approximately 10-20 pM). It also tightly binds the two structural types of msPLA2s, i.e. pancreatic PLA2 and synovial PLA2 (Kd approximately 1-10 nM). This receptor might have a key role in normal and pathological actions of secretory PLA2s.

Abstract
Oxyuranus scutellatus scutellatus toxins 1 (OS1) and 2 (OS2) are two phospholipase A2S (PLA2) isolated from the venom of the Australian Taipan snake. Their iodinated derivatives have been used to characterize PLA2 binding sites on rabbit skeletal muscle. Competition and cross-linking experiments indicate that 125I-labelled OS2 binding sites in rabbit skeletal muscle in vivo are distributed into two classes of receptors. One class binds OS2 and OS1 and is insensitive to the bee venom PLA2. It is composed of a 180 kDa binding protein. This class of PLA2 receptor is expressed at a high level in rabbit myotube membranes. The other class of PLA2 receptor identified with 125I-OS2 also binds with high affinity the bee venom PLA2 but not OS1 and is composed of major polypeptides of 34, 48 and 82 kDa. This second class of receptor is similar to the one found in brain membranes. The density of the two classes of receptors varies during muscle development.

Abstract
A radioiodinated derivative of OS2 (125I-OS2), a neurotoxic monochain phospholipase A2 isolated from taipan venom, was previously found to bind to a specific brain membrane receptor with very high affinity. 125I-OS2 is now used to identify the properties of neurotoxic phospholipase receptors in other tissues. Heart, skeletal muscle, kidney, lung, liver, pancreas, and smooth muscle membranes also contain high-affinity binding sites for toxic phospholipases A2. In most tissues, two different types of receptor sites have been characterized for 125I-OS2 with Kd1 and Kd2 values in the 1-5 pM and the 10-50 pM range respectively. Whereas all receptors are similar in the different tissues in terms of their affinity for 125I-OS2, maximal binding site capacities were very different, varying from 1.3 pmol/mg of protein in brain to 0.01 pmol/mg of protein in pancreas. In brain, heart, and skeletal muscle, receptor densities vary with in vivo development. Affinity labeling experiments have identified the subunit composition of OS2 receptors and indicated that these receptors do not have identical structures in the different tissues. Binding competition studies with OS2 and other toxic phospholipases showed tissue-dependent pharmacological profiles. All these results taken together suggest the existence of a family of receptors for neurotoxic phospholipases.

Abstract
Oxyuranus scutellatus toxin 1 (OS1) and toxin 2 (OS2) are two monochain phospholipases A2 isolated from the venom of Taipan. Their iodinated derivatives have been used to characterize phospholipase A2 receptors on rabbit skeletal muscle cells in culture. Both ligands recognize one family of binding sites on myotube membranes with a Bmax of 1.9 to 2.2 pmol/mg of protein and dissociation constant values of 7.4 pM for 125I-OS2 and 38 pM for 125I-OS1. Other snake venom phospholipases A2 are able to inhibit 125I-OS2 binding to the muscle receptor. Competition experiments with these unlabeled phospholipases A2 define a pharmacological profile of the muscle receptor very different from the previously described pharmacological profile of the neuronal phospholipase A2 receptors. The number of 125I-OS2 receptors in skeletal muscle cells increases during in vitro cell maturation but there is no clear relation between the increase of Bmax and the fusion of myoblasts into myotubes. The phospholipase A2 binding protein from myotubes has been identified both by cross-linking experiments and by purification studies. It is composed of only one subunit of Mr 180,000.
