PLA2G4C - phospholipase A2 group IVC Gene
Also Known as CPLA2-gamma
Species: Homo sapiens
About PLA2G4C
This gene has 24 transcripts (splice variants), 253 orthologues and 5 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in brain (RPKM 6.1), heart (RPKM 5.7) and 23 other tissues.
Summary
This gene encodes a protein which is a member of the Phospholipase A2 enzyme family which hydrolyzes glycerophospholipids to produce free fatty acids and lysophospholipids, both of which serve as precursors in the production of signaling molecules. The encoded protein has been shown to be a calcium-independent and membrane bound enzyme. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
