About Pla2g2a

Summary

Proteins belonging to the Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) family hydrolyze Phospholipids into sn2 fatty acids and lysophospholipids. They function in a variety of cellular processes, including the digestion of Phospholipids and the production of molecules that induce inflammatory responses. This gene encodes a member of the group II class of secretory PLA2s. The secreted Enzyme binds to heparin on the cell surface. Mutations in this gene increase the occurrence of intestinal polyps caused by a dominant mutation in the adenomatosis polyposis coli gene. A frameshift inactivates this gene product in some mouse strains including the strain of the reference genome, C57BL/6J, whereas a functional protein is produced in Other strains.
