About PNPLA8

Cytogenetic location: 7q31.1 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 7:108,470,417-108,528,178 (from NCBI)

This gene has 12 transcripts (splice variants), 278 orthologues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Ubiquitous expression in bone marrow (RPKM 15.3), adrenal (RPKM 14.6) and 25 other tissues.

Summary

This gene encodes a member of the patatin-like Phospholipase domain containing protein family. Members of this family are phospholipases which catalyze the cleavage of fatty acids from membrane Phospholipids. The product of this gene is a calcium-independent Phospholipase. Mutations in this gene have been associated with mitochondrial myopathy with lactic acidosis. Multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
