Abstract
Human secreted phospholipase A2 (hsPLA2) is a small calcium ion (Ca2+)-regulatory protein secreting from platelets, eosinophils and T-lymphocytes, which has been established as an important biomarker and potential target for the diagnosis and therapy of coronary artery disease. Short peptide inhibitors are used to competitively suppress the enzymatic activity of hsPLA2. Here, Ca2+ effect on the intermolecular recognition and interaction between hsPLA2 and its peptide inhibitors is investigated systematically by using molecular modeling and bioinformatics analysis. Dynamics simulations reveal that the hsPLA2 structure bound with Ca2+ is rather stable and has low thermal motion; removal of Ca2+ considerably increases structural flexibility and intrinsic disorder of the protein. Energetics calculations suggest that presence of Ca2+ can effectively promote the interaction of hsPLA2 with peptide inhibitors. In particular, the local substructures of hsPLA2 such as helix H1, loop L2 and double-stranded β-sheet DS that participate in peptide recognition are involved in or nearby Ca2+-coordinating site and can be directly stabilized by the Ca2+. In addition, a significant concentration-dependent effect of Ca2+ on peptide-hsPLA2 binding is observed in vitro, that is, a little of Ca2+ can largely improve peptide binding affinity, but high Ca2+ concentration does not increase the affinity substantially. The correlation between calculated free energy and experimental binding affinity over different peptide inhibitors is improved considerably by adding Ca2+ to hsPLA2. Specifically, the FLSYK peptide can generally bind to Ca2+-bound hsPLA2 with a moderate or high affinity (Kd ranges between 56 and 210 μM), but have only a modest affinity or even nonbinding to Ca2+-free hsPLA2 (Kd > 400 μM or = n.d.).

Abstract
Phospholipases A2 (PLA2) are a diverse group of enzymes that hydrolyze membrane phospholipids into arachidonic acid and lysophospholipids. Arachidonic acid is metabolized to eicosanoids (prostaglandins, leukotrienes, thromboxanes), and lysophospholipids are converted to platelet-activating factors. These lipid mediators play critical roles in the initiation, maintenance, and modulation of neuroinflammation and oxidative stress. Neurological disorders including excitotoxicity; traumatic nerve and brain injury; cerebral ischemia; Alzheimer's disease; Parkinson's disease; multiple sclerosis; experimental allergic encephalitis; pain; depression; bipolar disorder; schizophrenia; and autism are characterized by oxidative stress, inflammatory reactions, alterations in phospholipid metabolism, accumulation of lipid peroxides, and increased activities of brain phospholipase A2 isoforms. Several old and new synthetic inhibitors of PLA2, including fatty acid trifluoromethyl ketones; methyl arachidonyl fluorophosphonate; bromoenol lactone; indole-based inhibitors; pyrrolidine-based inhibitors; amide inhibitors, 2-oxoamides; 1,3-disubstituted propan-2-ones and polyfluoroalkyl ketones as well as phytochemical based PLA2 inhibitors including curcumin, Ginkgo biloba and Centella asiatica extracts have been discovered and used for the treatment of neurological disorders in cell culture and animal model systems. The purpose of this review is to summarize information on selective and potent synthetic inhibitors of PLA2 as well as several PLA2 inhibitors from plants, for treatment of oxidative stress and neuroinflammation associated with the pathogenesis of neurological disorders.

Abstract
Natural inhibitors occupy an important place in the potential to neutralize the toxic effects caused by snake venom proteins and enzymes. It has been well recognized for several years that animal sera, some of the plant and marine extracts are the most potent in neutralizing snake venom phospholipase A(2) (svPLA(2)). The implication of this review to update the latest research work which has been accomplished with svPLA(2) inhibitors from various natural sources like animal, marine organisms presents a compilation of research in this field over the past decade and revisiting the previous research report including those found in plants. In addition to that the bioactive compounds/inhibitor molecules from diverse sources like aristolochic alkaloid, flavonoids and neoflavonoids from plants, hydrocarbones -2, 4 dimethyl hexane, 2 methylnonane, and 2, 6 dimethyl heptane obtained from traditional medicinal plants Tragia involucrata (Euphorbiaceae) member of natural products involved for the inhibitory potential of phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) enzymes in vitro and also decrease both oedema induced by snake venom as well as human synovial fluid PLA(2). Besides marine natural products that inhibit PLA(2) are manoalide and its derivatives such as scalaradial and related compounds, pseudopterosins and vidalols, tetracylne from synthetic chemicals etc. There is an overview of the role of PLA(2) in inflammation that provides a rationale for seeking inhibitors of PLA(2) as anti-inflammatory agents. However, more studies should be considered to evaluate antivenom efficiency of sera and other agents against a variety of snake venoms found in various parts of the world. The implications of these new groups of svPLA(2) toxin inhibitors in the context of our current understanding of snake biology as well as in the development of new novel antivenoms therapeutics agents in the efficient treatment of snake envenomations are discussed.

Abstract
Novel compounds with significant medicinal properties have gained much interest in therapeutic approaches for treating various inflammatory disorders like arthritis, odema and snake bites and the post-envenom (impregnating with venom) consequences. Inflammation is caused by the increased concentration of secretory Phospholipases A(2) (sPLA(2)s) at the site of envenom. A novel compound Tris(2,4-di-tert-butylphenyl) phosphate (TDTBPP) was isolated from the leaves of Vitex negundo and the crystal structure was reported recently. The acute anti-inflammatory activity of TDTBPP was assessed by Carrageenan-induced rat paw odema method. TDTBPP reduced the raw paw odema volume significantly at the tested doses of 50 mg/kg and 70 mg/kg body weight. Molecular docking studies were carried out with the X-ray crystal structures of Daboia russelli pulchella's (Vipera russelli, Indian Russell's viper) venom sPLA(2) and Human non-pancreatic secretory PLA(2) (Hnps PLA(2)) as targets to illustrate the antiinflammatory and antidote activities of TDTBPP. Docking results showed hydrogen bond (H-bond) interaction with Lys69 residue lying in the anti-coagulant loop of D. russelli's venom PLA(2), which is essential in the catalytic activity of the enzyme and hydrophobic interactions with the residues at the binding site (His48, Asp49). Docking of TDTBPP with Hnps PLA(2) structure showed coordination with calcium ion directly as well as through the catalytically important water molecule (HOH1260) located at the binding site.

Abstract
Snake venoms are cocktails of enzymes and non-enzymatic proteins used for both the immobilization and digestion of prey. The most common snake venom enzymes include acetylcholinesterases, l-amino acid oxidases, serine proteinases, metalloproteinases and phospholipases A(2) . Higher catalytic efficiency, thermal stability and resistance to proteolysis make these enzymes attractive models for biochemists, enzymologists and structural biologists. Here, we review the structures of these enzymes and describe their structure-based mechanisms of catalysis and inhibition. Some of the enzymes exist as protein complexes in the venom. Thus we also discuss the functional role of non-enzymatic subunits and the pharmacological effects of such protein complexes. The structures of inhibitor-enzyme complexes provide ideal platforms for the design of potent inhibitors which are useful in the development of prototypes and lead compounds with potential therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Group IIA secreted phospholipase A₂ (GIIA sPLA₂) is a member of the mammalian sPLA₂ enzyme family and is associated with various inflammatory conditions. In this study, the synthesis of 2-oxoamides based on α-amino acids and the in vitro evaluation against three secreted sPLA₂s (GIIA, GV and GX) are described. The long chain 2-oxoamide GK126 based on the amino acid (S)-leucine displayed inhibition of human and mouse GIIA sPLA₂s (IC₅₀ 300nM and 180nM, respectively). It also inhibited human GV sPLA₂ with similar potency, while it did not inhibit human GX sPLA₂. The elucidation of the stereoelectronic characteristics that affect the in vitro activity of these compounds was achieved by using a combination of simulated annealing to sample low-energy conformations before the docking procedure, and molecular docking calculations.

Abstract
Protein-bound water molecules are important components of protein structure, and therefore, protein function and energetics. Although structural conservation of solvent has been studied in a few protein families, a lack of suitable computational tools has hindered more comprehensive analyses. Herein we present a semiautomated computational approach for identifying solvent sites that are conserved among proteins sharing a common three-dimensional structure. This method is tested on six protein families: (1) monodomain cytochrome c, (2) fatty-acid binding protein, (3) lactate/malate dehydrogenase, (4) parvalbumin, (5) phospholipase A2, and (6) serine protease. For each family, the method successfully identified previously known conserved solvent sites. Moreover, the method discovered 22 novel conserved solvent sites, some of which have higher degrees of conservation than the previously known sites. All six families studied had solvent sites with more than 90% conservation and these sites were invariably located in regions of the protein with very high sequence conservation. These results suggest that highly conserved solvent sites, by virtue of their proximity to conserved residues, should be considered as one of the defining three-dimensional structural characteristics of protein families and folds.

Abstract
This is the first evidence of a naturally bound fatty acid to a group I Phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) and also to a PLA(2) with Asp 49. The fatty acid identified as n-tridecanoic acid is observed at the substrate recognition site of PLA(2) hydrophobic channel. The complex was isolated from the venom of Bungarus caeruleus (Common Indian Krait). The primary sequence of the PLA(2) was determined using the cDNA method. Three-dimensional structure has been solved by the molecular replacement method and refined using the CNS package to a final R factor of 19.8% for the data in the resolution range from 20.0 to 2.7 A. The final refined model is comprised of 912 protein atoms, one sodium ion, one molecule of n-tridecanoic acid, and 60 water molecules. The sodium ion is located in the calcium-binding loop with a sevenfold coordination. A characteristic extra electron density was observed in the hydrophobic channel of the enzyme, into which a molecule of n-tridecanoic acid was clearly fitted. The MALDI-TOF measurements of the crystals had earlier indicated an increase in the molecular mass of PLA(2) by 212 Da over the native PLA(2). A major part of the ligand fits well in the binding pocket and interacts directly with His 48 and Asp 49. Although the overall structure of PLA(2) in the present complex is similar to the native structure reported earlier, it differs significantly in the folding of its calcium-binding loop.

Abstract
Phospholipase A2 is potentially an important target for structure-based rational drug design. In order to determine the involvement of phospholipase A2 in the action of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), the crystal structure of the complex formed between phospholipase A2 and aspirin has been determined at 1.9 angstroms resolution. The structure contains 915 protein atoms, 1 calcium ion, 13 atoms of aspirin and 105 water molecules. The observed electron density of the aspirin molecule in the structure was of very high quality thus allowing the precise determination of its atomic coordinates leading to the clear description of its interactions with the enzyme. The structure of the complex clearly shows that aspirin is literally embedded in the hydrophobic environment of PLA2. It is so placed in the substrate binding channel that it forms several important attractive interactions with calcium ion, His 48 and Asp 49. Thus, the structure of the complex clearly shows that aspirin occupies a favourable place in the specific binding site of PLA2. The binding studies have shown that acetyl salicylate (aspirin) binds to PLA2 enzyme specifically with a dissociation constant of 6.4 x 10(-6) M. The structural details and binding data suggest that the inhibition of PLA2 by aspirin is of pharmacological

Abstract
Structure-guided design was employed in a search for potent and selective inhibitors of mammalian secreted phospholipases A(2) (sPLA(2)s). Using the X-ray structures of human groups IIA and X sPLA(2)s (hGIIA and hGX) as templates, homology structural models were made for the other human and mouse sPLA(2)s (hGIB, mGIB, mGIIA, mGIIC, hGIID, mGIID, hGIIE, mGIIE, hGIIF, mGIIF, hGV, mGV, and mGX). Me-Indoxam is a previously discovered indole analogue that binds tightly to many sPLA(2)s, and the X-ray structure of the hGX-Me-Indoxam complex was determined at a resolution of 2.0 A. Modeling suggests that the residues near the N(1)-substituent of Me-Indoxam vary significantly among the mammalian sPLA(2)s, and therefore a library of 83N(1)-variants was prepared by parallel synthesis. Several Me-Indoxam analogues bearing a 4-(2-oxy-ethanoic acid) side chain were potent inhibitors (IC(50) <0.05 microM) of hGIIA, mGIIA, mGIIC, hGIIE, mGIIE, hGV, and mGV, while they displayed intermediate potency (0.05-5 microM) against hGIB, mGIB, hGX, and mGX, and poorly inhibited (>5 microM) hGIID, mGIID, hGIIF, and mGIIF. Me-Indoxam analogues bearing a 5-(4-oxy-butanoic acid) side chain were generally less potent inhibitors. Although no compounds were found to be highly specific for a single human or mouse sPLA(2), combinations of Me-Indoxam analogues were discovered that could be used to distinguish the action of various sPLA(2)s in cellular events. For example, Me-Indoxam and compound 5 are approximately 5-fold more potent on hGIIA than on hGV, and compound 21 is 10-fold more potent on hGV versus hGIIA.

Abstract
Phospholipase A2 catalyses the hydrolysis of the ester bond of 3-sn-phosphoglycerides. Here, we report the crystal structures of the free and anisic acid-bound triple mutant (K53,56,120M) of bovine pancreatic phospholipase A2. In the bound triple mutant structure, the small organic molecule p-anisic acid is found in the active site, and one of the carboxylate oxygen atoms is coordinated to the functionally important primary calcium ion. The other carboxylate oxygen atom is hydrogen bonded to the phenolic hydroxyl group of Tyr69. In addition, the bound anisic acid molecule replaces one of the functionally important water molecules in the active site. The residues 60-70, which are in a loop (surface loop), are disordered in most of the bovine pancreatic phospholipase A2 structures. It is interesting to note that these residues are ordered in the bound triple mutant structure but are disordered in the free triple mutant structure. The organic crystallization ingredient 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol is found near the active site of the free triple mutant structure. The overall tertiary folding and stereochemical parameters for the final models of the free and anisic acid-bound triple mutant are virtually identical.

Abstract
Few reported inhibitors of secretory phospholipase A(2) enzymes truly inhibit the IIa human isoform (hnpsPLA(2)-IIa) noncovalently at submicromolar concentrations. Herein, the simple chiral precursor D-tyrosine was derivatised to give a series of potent new inhibitors of hnpsPLA(2)-IIa. A 2.2-A crystal structure shows an inhibitor bound in the active site of the enzyme, chelated to a Ca(2+) ion through carboxylate and amide oxygen atoms, H-bonded through an amide NH group to His48, with multiple hydrophobic contacts and a T-shaped aromatic-group-His6 interaction. Antiinflammatory activity is also demonstrated for two compounds administered orally to rats.

Abstract
Phospholipase A(2) is an important enzyme involved in the production of prostaglandins and their related compounds causing inflammatory disorders. Among the several peptides tested, the peptide Phe-Leu-Ser-Tyr-Lys (FLSYK) showed the highest inhibition. The dissociation constant (K(d)) for this peptide was calculated to be 3.57 +/- 0.05 x 10(-9) m. In order to further improve the degree of inhibition of phospholipase A(2), a complex between Russells viper snake venom phospholipase A(2) and a peptide inhibitor FLSYK was crystallized, and its structure was determined by crystallographic methods and refined to an R-factor of 0.205 at 1.8 A resolution. The structure contains two crystallographically independent molecules of phospholipase A(2) (molecules A and B) and a peptide molecule specifically bound to molecule A only. The two molecules formed an asymmetric dimer. The dimerization caused a modification in the binding site of molecule A. The overall conformations of molecules A and B were found to be generally similar except three regions i.e. the Trp-31-containing loop (residues 25-34), the beta-wing consisting of two antiparallel beta-strands (residues 74-85) and the C-terminal region (residues 119-133). Out of the above three, the most striking difference pertains to the conformation of Trp-31 in the two molecules. The orientation of Trp-31 in molecule A was suitable for the binding of FLSYK, while it disallowed the binding of peptide to molecule B. The structure of the complex clearly shows that the peptide is so placed in the binding site of molecule A that the side chain of its lysine residue interacted extensively with the enzyme and formed several hydrogen bonds in addition to a strong electrostatic interaction with critical Asp-49. The C-terminal carboxylic group of the peptide interacted with the catalytic residue His-48.

Abstract
Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) hydrolyzes phospholipids to free fatty acids and lysolipids and thus initiates the biosynthesis of eicosanoids and platelet-activating factor, potent mediators of inflammation, allergy, apoptosis, and tumorigenesis. The relative contributions of the physical properties of membranes and the structural changes in PLA2 to the interfacial activation of PLA2, that is, a strong increase in the lipolytic activity upon binding to the surface of phospholipid membranes or micelles, are not well understood. The present results demonstrate that both binding of PLA2 to phospholipid bilayers and its activity are facilitated by membrane surface electrostatics. Higher PLA2 activity toward negatively charged membranes is shown to result from stronger membrane-enzyme electrostatic interactions rather than selective hydrolysis of the acidic lipid. Phospholipid hydrolysis by PLA2 is followed by preferential removal of the liberated lysolipid and accumulation of the fatty acid in the membrane that may predominantly modulate PLA2 activity by affecting membrane electrostatics and/or morphology. The previously described induction of a flexible helical structure in PLA2 during interfacial activation was more pronounced at higher negative charge densities of membranes. These findings identify a reciprocal relationship between the membrane surface properties, strength of membrane binding of PLA2, membrane-induced structural changes in PLA2, and the enzyme activation.

Abstract
Seven small peptides, that are among the most potent reported inhibitors of secreted mammalian phospholipases A(2), were found not to inhibit processing of a small phospholipid substrate by human non-pancreatic secretory phospholipase A(2) (type IIa), under conditions where certain non-peptides are potent inhibitors at nanomolar concentrations.

Abstract
Acylamino inhibitors of 14 kDa-PLA2 were synthesized which differ in the moiety that is not bound into the enzyme's active site but immersed in the lipid aggregate when a ternary inhibitory complex is formed. Our results indicate that this part of the inhibitors does not significantly influence inhibitory properties as long the amphiphilic character is retained. So, inhibitory and biophysical properties should be variable independently.
