MyBioSource.com's PLA2G5 Antibody (C-term) is a Rabbit Polyclonal antibody. This antibody has been shown to work in applications such as: ELISA, Immunohistochemistry, and Western Blot. The PLA2G5 Antibody (C-term) was generated using GV-PLA2, and PLA2G5 as the antigen and it reacts with Human.
Description
This gene is a member of the secretory phospholipase A2
family. It is located in a tightly-linked cluster of secretory
phospholipase A2 genes on chromosome 1. The encoded enzyme
catalyzes the hydrolysis of membrane phospholipids to generate
lysophospholipids and free fatty acids including arachidonic acid.
It preferentially hydrolyzes linoleoyl-containing
phosphatidylcholine substrates. Secretion of this enzyme is thought
to induce inflammatory responses in neighboring cells.
Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been found, but
their full-length nature has not been determined. [provided by
