Pafah2 - platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase 2 Gene

Also Known as 2310074E22Rik

Species: Mus musculus

Gene Type: protein coding
Gene ID: 100163

Summary

Predicted to enable 1-alkyl-2-acetylglycerophosphocholine esterase activity and platelet-activating factor acetyltransferase activity. Predicted to be involved in negative regulation of apoptotic process. Predicted to act upstream of or within lipid metabolic process. Predicted to be located in endoplasmic reticulum and membrane. Is expressed in alimentary system; nervous system; and respiratory system. Orthologous to human PAFAH2 (platelet activating factor acetylhydrolase 2).
