What happens when phoshoplipase A2 hydrolyzes lymphocyte membranes when these cells are under apoptosis?

Question

I understand that when apoptosis (cellular death) occurs to a lymphoma cell (lymphocyte) that it makes it more susceptible to hydrolysis of phoshoplipase A2. But what happens when the membrane is hydrolyzed? I know it would add a H or OH group to the membrane. BUT what would that actually effect the cell and its membrane? How would the membrane change/ or be different?

Answer 1

What will happen is that the membrane will rupture or "bleb" out.  This is due to the change in structure of the lipid bilayer as the fatty acid groups are being hydrolyzed.
