Abstract

Phospholipase D (PLD) family proteins degrade phospholipids and nucleic acids. In the current issue of Structure, Yuan etal.1 report crystal structures of lysosomal PLD3 and PLD4 with and without a single-stranded DNA substrate. Their manuscript reveals a catalytic ping-pong mechanism and explains how disease-associated mutations compromise PLD3/4 function.
