Gene information for LYPLA1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID10434
Official gene symbolLYPLA1
Full namelysophospholipase I
Aliases,APT-1,LPL1,LYSOPLA,
Gene summaryLysophospholipases are enzymes that act on biological membranes to regulate the multifunctional lysophospholipids. The protein encoded by this gene hydrolyzes lysophosphatidylcholine in both monomeric and micellar forms. The use of alternate polyadenylation sites has been found for this gene. There are alternatively spliced transcript variants described for this gene but the full length nature is not known yet. [provided by RefSeq]
