PLA2G15 - phospholipase A2 group XV Gene
Also Known as ACS; LLPL; LPLA2; LYPLA3; GXVPLA2
Species: Homo sapiens
About PLA2G15
This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 213 orthologues and 1 paralogue. Ubiquitous expression in placenta (RPKM 17.1), heart (RPKM 11.8) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
Lysophospholipases are Enzymes that act on biological membranes to regulate the multifunctional lysophospholipids. The protein encoded by this gene hydrolyzes lysophosphatidylcholine to glycerophosphorylcholine and a free fatty acid. This enzyme is present in the plasma and thought to be associated with high-density lipoprotein. A later paper contradicts the function of this gene. It demonstrates that this gene encodes a lysosomal enzyme instead of a lysophospholipase and has both calcium-independent Phospholipase A2 and transacylase activities. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
