About Pnpla2

Chromosome 7: 141,035,111-141,040,656 forward strand.GRCm39:CM001000.3

This gene has 7 transcripts (splice variants), 193 orthologues, 3 paralogues and is associated with 59 phenotypes. Biased expression in mammary gland adult (RPKM 647.4), subcutaneous fat pad adult (RPKM 559.9) and 14 other tissues.

Summary

Enables triglyceride Lipase activity. Involved in several processes, including acylglycerol metabolic process; negative regulation of sequestering of triglyceride; and positive regulation of triglyceride catabolic process. Acts upstream of or within cellular lipid catabolic process and lipid droplet organization. Located in cytosol and lipid droplet. Orthologous to human PNPLA2 (patatin like Phospholipase domain containing 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Apr 2022]
