About PAFAH1B3

Cytogenetic location: 19q13.2 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:42,297,033-42,302,800 (from NCBI)

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 208 orthologues and 2 paralogues. Ubiquitous expression in testis (RPKM 7.8), brain (RPKM 7.2) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes an acetylhydrolase that catalyzes the removal of an acetyl group from the glycerol backbone of platelet-activating factor. The encoded Enzyme is a subunit of the platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase isoform 1B complex, which consists of the catalytic beta and gamma subunits and the regulatory alpha subunit. This complex functions in brain development. A translocation between this gene on chromosome 19 and the CDC-like kinase 2 gene on chromosome 1 has been observed, and was associated with cognitive disability, ataxia, and atrophy of the brain. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. [provided by RefSeq, Mar 2009]
