Homo sapiens

Also known as ADPN; C22orf20; iPLA(2)epsilon

Gene ID: 80339 | Gene type: protein coding

About PNPLA3

Cytogenetic location: 22q13.31 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 22:43,923,805-43,947,582 (from NCBI)

This gene has 5 transcripts (splice variants), 303 orthologues, 4 paralogues and is associated with 1 phenotype. Biased expression in liver (RPKM 8.6), kidney (RPKM 3.4) and 4 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a triacylglycerol Lipase that mediates triacylglycerol hydrolysis in adipocytes. The encoded protein, which appears to be membrane bound, may be involved in the balance of energy usage/storage in adipocytes. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
