Latar Belakang: Temulawak (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb.) merupakan salah satu tanaman obat unggul Indonesia yang memiliki potensi untuk menghambat pembentukan biofilm C. albicans. Faktor virulensi yang dapat menyebabkan C. albicans menjadi fungi patogen diantaranya adalah pembentukan biofilm dan sekresi enzim hidrolitik. Fosfolipase merupakan salah satu enzim hidrolitik yang dapat merusak membran sel inang. Tujuan: Menganalisis aktivitas fosfolipase pada biofilm C. albicans ATCC 10231 fase awal, menengah, dan maturasi yang terhambat ekstrak etanol temulawak (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb.). Metode: Nilai Kadar Hambat Biofilm Minimal (KHBM50) C. albicans ditentukan dengan uji MTT-assay. Ekstrak etanol temulawak dengan konsentrasi sesuai KHBM50 dipaparkan pada biofilm fase awal, menengah, dan maturase. Kontrol negative tidak dipaparkan apapun, kontrol positif dipaparkan Nystatin 100.000 IU. Aktivitas fosfolipase biofilm C. albicans dianalisis dengan mengukur proporsi antara diameterzona presipitasi dengan diameter koloni C. albicans pada medium Egg Yolk Agar (EYA). Hasil: Nilai KHBM50 ekstrak etanol temulawak terhadap biofilm C. albicans ATCC 10231 pada fase awal, fase menengah, dan fase maturasi berturut-turut adalah 25%, 30%, dan 35%. Pada kontrol positif, aktivitas fosfolipase biofilm C. albicans fase awal, fase menengah, dan fase maturasi bernilai 1. Aktivitas fosfolipase biofilm C. albicansfase awal, fase menengah, dan fase maturasi yang terhambat ekstrak etanol temulawak berturut-turut 0.84, 0.80, dan 0.83. Pada kontrol negatif, aktivitas enzim fosfolipase biofilm C. albicans fase awal, fase menengah, dan fase maturasi berturut-turut 0.59, 0.57, dan 0.57. Kesimpulan: Terdapat kecenderungan penurunan aktivitas enzim fosfolipase pada biofilm C. albicans yang terhambat > 50% ekstrak etanol temulawak. ...... Background: Javanese turmeric (Curcuma xanthorrhiza Roxb.) is one of medical plant from Indonesia that has potency to inhibit biofilm formation of C. albicans. Biofilm formation and hydrolyticenzymes are two among manyvirulence factors of C. albicans. Phospholipaseisone of hydrolyticenzymesthat could degrade the hostcell membrane. Objective: To observe the activities ofphospholipase in early phase, intermediate phase, and maturation phase of biofilm C. albicans ATCC 10231 that has been inhibited by Javanese turmeric ethanolic extract. Method: MTT-assay wasused to measure the minimum biofilm inhibitory concentration (MBIC50) of C. albicans ATCC 10231in three phases of C. albicans biofilm. Those concentrations were used to observe phospholipase activities of biofilm in the relevant phases. The negative control were not exposed to anything, while the positive control were exposed to Nystatin 100.000 IU. Phospholipase activities were determined bymeasuring the proportion of precipitation zone diameter and C. albicans colony diameter onan egg yolk-agar medium. Results: The MBIC50of Javanese turmeric ethanolic extract towards formation of C. albicans biofilm ATCC 10231 in early phase, intermediate phase, and maturation phase were 25%, 30%, and 35%, respectively. Phospholipase activities value in early phase, intermediate phase, and maturation phase of C. albicans biofilm exposed by Nystatin were 1. Phospholipase activities value in early phase, intermediate phase, and maturation phase of C. albicans biofilms exposed by Javanese turmeric ethanolic extract were 0.84, 0.80, and 0.83, respectively. Phospholipase activities value in early phase, intermediate phase, and maturation phase of unexposed C. albicans biofilm were 0.59, 0.57, and 0.57, respectively. Conclusion: There istendency of decreased phospholipase activity in early phase, intermediate phase, and maturation phase of biofilm C. albicans that has been inhibited by Javanese turmericethanolic extract.

ABSTRAK
Acanthaster planci (A.planci) merupakan pemangsa karang yang sangat berbahaya, yang dapat mengganggu ekosistem terumbu karang jika terjadi peledakan populasi. Oleh karena itu perlu dilakukan pengendalian populasi A.planci. Duri A.planci menghasilkan racun yang menggandung fosfolipase-A₂ (PLA2) (Shiomi et al., 1998) yang dapat digunakan sebagai anti bakteri, anti virus, anti koagulan dan membantu metabolisme lipid. Sehingga racun tersebut dapat dimanfaatkan untuk bidang kedokteran dan farmasi. Pemanfaatan racun duri A.planci dapat menjadi solusi bagi pengendalian populasinya. Pada penelitian ini isolasi PLA₂ dilakukan sesuai dengan metode Savitri et al., 2011 dan modifikasi metode Savitri et al., 2011 yaitu tanpa teknik pemanasan crude venom. Hasil isolasi PLA2 dari duri A.planci yang berasal dari perairan Papua dengan metode Savitri diperoleh aktifitas spesifik PLA₂ menurun karena adanya teknik pemanasan crude venom. Hasil isolasi dengan modifikasi metode Savitri diperoleh pada fraksionasi 20% amonium sulfat memiliki aktifitas spesifik 26,67 unit/mg protein dan tingkat kemurnian 37 kali dari aktifitas spesifik crude venom. Uji kation sebagai kofaktor terhadap aktifitas spesifik diperoleh PLA₂ yang dihasilkan adalah PLA₂ Ca2+ independent.

ABSTRACT
Acanthaster planci is an extremely dangerous corallivores, especially its dramatic outbreak that disrupt the ecosystem of coral reefs. Therefore necessary to control A.planci population. A.planci spines venom contain phospholiphase- A₂ (Shiomi et al., 1998), that can be used as an antibacterial, antiviral, anticoagulant and help lipid metabolism. So that venom can be used for medical and pharmaceutical fields. Utilization of A. planci spines venom can be a solution for population control A.planci. In this study, the isolation of PL A₂ is in accordance with the method of Savitri et al, 2011 and modification of Savitri method which is without heating of crude venom. Specific activity of PL A₂ from Papua's A.planci spines venom which is isolation process with method of Savitri et al., 2011 is decrease because heating technique. Result of isolation PL A₂ with modification of Savitri method obtain in 20% ammonium sulfate fractination with specific activity 26,67 units/mg of protein and purity factor 37 times of crude venom. Assay of the influence cation as a cofactor againts specific activity of PLA₂ obtain Ca2 + independent characteristic.

Lipases and Phospholipases are key control elements in mammalian metabolism. They share many common features that set them apart from other metabolic enzyme classes, most importantly their association with biological membranes. Their potential as drug targets for the treatment of metabolic diseases is widely recognized, and the first lipase inhibitor drugs have been successfully introduced. Providing drug developers with a firm foundation for lipase-centered drug design, the editors of this volume have assembled experts from different scientific disciplines to create a comprehensive handbook for all pharmaceutical chemists, biochemists and physiologists working with lipases. The authors examine fundamental aspects of lipase function in vitro and in vivo, explaining how this knowledge may be used to develop lipase assays. They also treat the physiological roles of lipases in normal and disordered metabolism, as well as strategies to target lipases for the treatment of diabetes, obesity and related disorders. Additional topics include the application of phospholipases for liposome-based drug delivery and their use as diagnostic tools.
