Gene information for LPPR1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID54886
Official gene symbolLPPR1
Full namelipid phosphate phosphatase-related protein type 1
Aliases,MGC26189,PRG-3,
Gene summaryThis gene encodes a member of the plasticity-related gene (PRG) family. Members of the PRG family mediate lipid phosphate phosphatase activity in neurons and are known to be involved in neuronal plasticity. The protein encoded by this gene does not perform its function through enzymatic phospholipid degradation. This gene is strongly expressed in brain. It shows dynamic expression regulation during brain development and neuronal excitation. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding the same protein have been observed. [provided by RefSeq]
