Anti-PNPLA8 (PACO00978)

PNPLA8 Antibody from Assay Genie with reactivity against Human, Mouse and for use in ELISA, WB applications. PNPLA8 Antibody is Polyclonal and is a IgG isotype antibody from Assay Genie.. Protein function: Calcium-independent phospholipase A2, which promotes cellular membrane hydrolysis and prostaglandin production (PubMed:10744668, PubMed:15695510). Catalyzes the hydrolysis of the sn-2 position of glycerophospholipids, phosphytidylserine and to a lower extent phosphatidylcholine (PubMed:10744668). Cleaves membrane phospholipids (PubMed:15695510). Participates in the generation of lipid second messengers through the mobilization of arachidonic acid in response to cellular stimuli. Synthesizes 2-arachidonoyl lysophosphatidylcholine, a key branch point metabolite in eicosanoid signaling (PubMed:15908428). Participates in the lipid plasticity of myocardium, plays a role in the generation of signaling metabolites and has a prominent effect on the modulaton of energy storage and utilization (PubMed:17213206). Essential for maintaining efficient bioenergetic mitochondrial function through tailoring mitochondrial membrane lipid metabolism and composition. [The UniProt Consortium]
