PLA2G7/PAF-AH/Lp-PLA2 Products

Description

The protein encoded by the PLA2G7 gene is a secreted enzyme that catalyzes the degradation of platelet-activating factor to biologically inactive products. Defects in this gene are a cause of platelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase deficiency. Two transcript variants encoding the same protein have been found for this gene.
