Gene: BAIAP2L2

Alternate names for this Gene: -

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene binds phosphoinositides and promotes the formation of planar or curved membrane structures. The encoded protein is found in RAB13-positive vesicles and at intercellular contacts with the plasma membrane.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 22

Location in Chromosome : 22q13.1

Description of this Gene: BAR/IMD domain containing adaptor protein 2 like 2

Type of Gene: protein-coding

Gene: PLA2G6

Alternate names for this Gene: CaI-PLA2|GVI|INAD1|IPLA2-VIA|NBIA2|NBIA2A|NBIA2B|PARK14|PLA2|PNPLA9|iPLA2|iPLA2beta

Gene Summary: The protein encoded by this gene is an A2 phospholipase, a class of enzyme that catalyzes the release of fatty acids from phospholipids. The encoded protein may play a role in phospholipid remodelling, arachidonic acid release, leukotriene and prostaglandin synthesis, fas-mediated apoptosis, and transmembrane ion flux in glucose-stimulated B-cells. Several transcript variants encoding multiple isoforms have been described, but the full-length nature of only three of them have been determined to date.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 22

Location in Chromosome : 22q13.1

Description of this Gene: phospholipase A2 group VI

Type of Gene: protein-coding
