Phospholipase C, PLC is an enzyme that produces two second messengers inositol 1, 4, 5-triphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG) by cleavage of inositol phospolipids. IP3 in turn triggers the release of calcium ions from the endoplasmic reticulum ( or sarcoplasmic reticulum in muscle cells). DAG activates protein kinase C (PKC)[1][2][3][4].

There are some studies that show that this enzyme has five groups, each group contains at least two isoforms.

  1. Eta is a superfamily of 1,2
  2. Beta 1,2,3 and 4 key step in the intracellular transduction of many extracellular signals, are regulated by heterotrimeric G protein-coupled receptors, Gq activates inositol phospholipid signalling pathway which in turn will activate PLC-beta enzyme.
  3. Delta 1,2,3
  4. Gamma 1,2 enzymes are controlled by receptor tyrosine kinases.
  5. Zeta 1

Most of them differ in their activation. Because they are controlled by different receptors.

Phospholipase C is a plasma membrane bound enzyme and is activated by G- protein linked signalling in a similar process to the activation of adenylyl cyclase. Once the G protein has been stimulated it activates phospholipase C which cleaves a phospholipid called phosphatidylinositol 4,5- biphosphate found in the plasma membrane lipid bilayer [5]. This results in two products: inositol 1,4,5 triphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG). IP3 diffuses into the cytosol untill it reaches the endoplasmic reticulum where it opens calcium channels causing a release of Ca2+ into the cytosol. This effect can be reversed in three different ways:

  1. IP3 can form IP2 via dephosphorylation.
  2. IP3 can be phosphorylated to form IP4
  3. Ca2+ is pumped out rapidly.

The other product, DAG remains in the plasma membrane due to its hydrophobic fatty chains. DAG activates protein kinase C (PKC) which then phosphorylates target proteins. PKC is activated by Ca2+ and diacylglycerol and is therefore called a conventional PKC[6]. DAG can also remain in the plasma membrane as it can be cleaved again with the product acting as a signalling molecule[7].
