Background Information
Phospholipase A2 (PLA2) enzymes catalyze hydrolysis of glycolipids to release free fatty acids and lysophospholipids. PLA2G12B is a secreted group XIIB secretory phospholipase A2-like protein belonging to the PLA2 family, but it is catalytically inactive due to an amino acid change in its active site and has altered phospholipid-binding properties (PMID: 14516201). It is located outside the cell membranes and strongly expressed in liver, small intestine and kidney, and recently reports revealed that Pla2g12b gene may be implicated in HDL cholesterol levels and metabolism (PMID: 22912808). The calculated molecular weight of PLA2G12B is 21 kDa.
