Our earlier studies have shown that mammalian pancreatic group I phospholipase A2 (PLA2-I) has its specific receptor (PLA2 receptor) on a wide range of mammalian cells and that the receptor-binding capability of PLA2-I is a property of this molecule separable from its enzymatic activity. To clarify whether PLA2 activity is required for eliciting a biological response via the receptor or not, we examined the enzymatic activity of PLA2-I/PLA2 receptor complex and the inducibility of prostaglandin (PG) E2 production in rat mesangial cells by mutant PLA2s-I. Using a recombinant soluble PLA2 receptor, we first found that PLA2-I could not hydrolyze a phospholipid substrate when complexed with the receptor. In the next experiment using various mutant porcine PLA2s-I, we found that PGE2 production in rat mesangial cells could be induced by a mutant PLA2-I which retained the receptor-binding activity but had almost completely lost its enzymatic activity. These findings indicate that the enzyme action of PLA2-I is not required for a PLA2-I-induced biological response, i.e., the augmentation of PGE2 production in rat mesangial cells.
