About PLPP2

Cytogenetic location: 19p13.3 Genomic coordinates (GRCh38): 19:281,043-291,403 (from NCBI)

This gene has 8 transcripts (splice variants), 282 orthologues and 9 paralogues. Broad expression in gall bladder (RPKM 23.7), duodenum (RPKM 23.0) and 17 other tissues.

Summary

The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the phosphatidic Acid Phosphatase (PAP) family. PAPs convert phosphatidic acid to diacylglycerol, and function in de novo synthesis of glycerolipids as well as in receptor-activated signal transduction mediated by Phospholipase D. This protein is similar to phosphatidic Acid Phosphatase type 2A (PPAP2A) and type 2B (PPAP2B). All three proteins contain 6 transmembrane regions, and a consensus N-glycosylation site. This protein has been shown to possess membrane associated PAP activity. Three alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been reported. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
