Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Calcium-independent activity**: PLA2G6 is distinguished from other phospholipase A2 enzymes by its calcium-independent activity, allowing it to hydrolyze phospholipids in the absence of calcium ions. 2. **Lysophospholipase activity**: PLA2G6 exhibits lysophospholipase activity, which is essential for the production of bioactive lysophospholipids, such as lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) and lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC). 3. **Expression in various cell types**: PLA2G6 is expressed in multiple cell types, including kidney capillary endothelial cells, mononuclear cells, and cardiac muscle myoblasts, highlighting its broad tissue distribution. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Lipid metabolism**: PLA2G6 is involved in the hydrolysis of phospholipids, leading to the production of lysophospholipids, which play crucial roles in lipid signaling pathways. 2. **Immune response**: PLA2G6 is implicated in the regulation of immune responses, including phagocytosis, chemotaxis, and cytokine production, through its interaction with pattern recognition receptors and other immune cells. 3. **Cellular signaling**: PLA2G6 is involved in various cellular signaling pathways, including the regulation of insulin secretion, platelet activation, and ceramide biosynthesis. 4. **Golgi-to-ER retrograde transport**: PLA2G6 has been shown to participate in the Golgi-to-ER retrograde transport, which is essential for the regulation of lipid metabolism and cellular homeostasis. **Clinical Significance:** 1. **Innate immune disorders**: PLA2G6 has been associated with various innate immune disorders, including primary immunodeficiency diseases, such as chronic granulomatous disease and Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome. 2. **Autoimmune diseases**: PLA2G6 has been implicated in the pathogenesis of autoimmune diseases, including rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, and multiple sclerosis, through its role in lipid metabolism and immune response regulation. 3. **Cancer**: PLA2G6 has been shown to play a role in cancer progression and metastasis, particularly in the regulation of lipid metabolism and cell signaling pathways. In conclusion, PLA2G6 is a multifunctional enzyme that plays a critical role in lipid metabolism, immune response, and cellular signaling. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the need for further research into the mechanisms underlying PLA2G6 function and its clinical significance.

Database document:

This is a preview of the gene's schema. Only a few entries are kept for 'singleCellExpressions,' 'mRNAExpressions,' and other large data arrays for visualization purposes. You can zoom in with the mouse wheel for a closer view, and the text will adjust automatically if necessary. For the full schema, download it here.
