About Pla2g6

Summary

Enables calcium-independent Phospholipase A2 activity; palmitoyl-CoA hydrolase activity; and serine hydrolase activity. Involved in positive regulation of Insulin secretion involved in cellular response to glucose stimulus. Predicted to be located in centriolar satellite; cytosol; and extracellular space. Predicted to be active in mitochondrion. Is expressed in 1st branchial arch maxillary component; olfactory placode; otic pit; and trunk somite. Used to study neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation 2a. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in dystonia 12; neuroaxonal dystrophy; and neurodegenerative disease (multiple). Orthologous to human PLA2G6 (Phospholipase A2 group VI). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
