Gene: PLA2G4E
Alternate names for this Gene: -
Gene Summary: This gene encodes a member of the cytosolic phospholipase A2 group IV family. Members of this family are involved in regulation of membrane tubule-mediated transport. The enzyme encoded by this member of the family plays a role in trafficking through the clathrin-independent endocytic pathway. The enzyme regulates the recycling process via formation of tubules that transport internalized clathrin-independent cargo proteins back to the cell surface.
Gene is located in Chromosome: 15
Location in Chromosome : 15q15.1
Description of this Gene: phospholipase A2 group IVE
Type of Gene: protein-coding
