Apo C1, a 6.5 kD protein component of VLDL, inhibits the hydrolysis of DPPC vesicles by pancreatic PLA2 and the hydrolysis of cellular phospholipids by endogenous phospholipases by interaction with the substrate. It is suggested that apo C1 and similar phospholipid-binding proteins modulate in vivo phospholipase activity, because they do so in cell homogenates with concentrations approximately equal to those found in the plasma.

Fractures are common and serious skeletal injuries, and accelerating their healing while alleviating patient suffering remains a clinical challenge. Annexin A2 (ANXA2) is a widely distributed, calcium-dependent, phospholipid-binding protein involved in bone remodeling. However, its role in chondrocyte differentiation and endochondral ossification remains unclear.

Introduction: Copine-3 (CPNE3) is a conservative calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding protein belonging to the copines protein family. CPNE3 has been implicated in the development and progression of several diseases, including cancer.
Method: Herein, we investigated the molecular mechanisms through which CPNE3 regulates the migration of lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) cells in vitro.

Annexins are a family of multifunctional calcium-dependent and phospholipid-binding proteins that are widely distributed in the plant kingdom. They have a highly conserved evolutionary history that dates back to single-celled protists. Plant annexins, as soluble proteins, can flexibly bind to endomembranes and plasma membranes, exhibiting unique calcium-dependent and calcium-independent characteristics.

Annexins are a family of calcium-dependent phospholipid-binding proteins involved in crucial cellular processes such as cell division, calcium signaling, vesicle trafficking, membrane repair, and apoptosis. In addition to these properties, Annexins have also been shown to bind RNA, although this function is not universally recognized. In the attempt to clarify this important issue, we employed an integrated combination of experimental and computational approaches.

Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune disorder characterized by antiphospholipid antibodies associated with thrombosis and pregnancy complications. Catastrophic APS is a severe form involving multiple organ systems with a high mortality rate. The pathogenesis involves antiphospholipid antibodies which target phospholipid-binding proteins and damage endothelial cells thus activating coagulation, triggering a pro-thrombotic state.
