摘要

A novel phospholipase A1 (PLA1) having a substrate specificity for phosphatidic acid (PA); a peptide or a polypeptide originating in the novel PLA1; a polynucleotide encoding the peptide or the polypeptide originating in the novel PLA1; a process for producing the peptide or the polypeptide originating in the novel PLA1; an antibody against the peptide or the polypeptide originating in the novel PLA1; a method of identifying an inhibitor, an antagonist or a potentiator for the novel PLA1 by using the same; a compound identified by this method; and medicinal compositions and a diagnostic method with the use of the same.
