PLAAT2

protein-coding

phospholipase A and acyltransferase 2, the group of Phospholipase A and acyltransferase family

Gene summary

The protein encoded by this gene has both phospholipase and acyltransferase activities and acts as a tumor suppressor. The encoded protein can hydrolyze dipalmitoylated phosphatidylcholine (PC) to palmitic acid and lyso-PC. In addition, this protein can catalyze the N-acylation of phosphatidylethanolamine and can catalyze the O-acylation of lyso-PC to form PC. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2016]

ClinVar Variants & Pathogenicity by Type

Statistics based on transcript NM_017878.2. Only rare variants are included.

We include only reliable ClinVar variants with their consequences to MANE Select, MANE Plus Clinical transcripts, or transcripts with TSL equal to 1. Click a count to filter the variants table below.

Slight differences between displayed counts and ClinVar may occur due to a different transcript/consequence chosen by our variant effect predictor, or because we classify Benign/Likely benign as Likely benign and Pathogenic/Likely pathogenic as Likely pathogenic.

Function
FUNCTION: Exhibits PLA1/2 activity, catalyzing the calcium- independent hydrolysis of acyl groups in various phosphatidylcholines (PC) and phosphatidylethanolamine (PE). For most substrates, PLA1 activity is much higher than PLA2 activity. Catalyzes N-acylation of PE using both sn-1 and sn-2 palmitoyl groups of PC as acyl donor. Also catalyzes O-acylation converting lyso-PC into PC. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:19615464, ECO:0000269|PubMed:22605381}.;
