Gene Information

human ... PLA2G6(8398)

General description

PLA2G6 (phospholipase A2, group VI) localizes in the mitochondria.

Immunogen

85 kDa calcium-independent phospholipase A2 recombinant protein epitope signature tag (PrEST)

Application

Anti-PLA2G6 antibody produced in rabbit, a Prestige Antibody, is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. The antibodies are also tested using immunofluorescence and western blotting. To view these protocols and other useful information about Prestige Antibodies and the HPA, visit sigma.com/prestige.

Biochem/physiol Actions

PLA2G6 (phospholipase A2, group VI) gene encodes a phospholipase that catalyzes the release of fatty acids from phospholipids. The protein may function in phospholipid remodeling, nitric oxide-induced or vasopressin-induced arachidonic acid release. It is also involved in leukotriene and prostaglandin synthesis. It may have a role in fas mediated apoptosis and in regulating transmembrane ion flux in glucose-stimulated B-cells. It is also involved in cardiolipin (CL) deacylation. Mutations in PLA2G6 are associated with infantile neuroaxonal dystrophy, neurodegeneration with brain iron accumulation type II and autosomal recessive early-onset dystonia-parkinsonism. Loss of PLA2G6 gene activity causes lipid peroxidation, mitochondrial dysfunction and thereby mitochondrial membrane abnormalities. It is also involved in type 1 diabetes, by participating in endoplasmic reticulum stress-induced β-cell apoptosis.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.

Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways:
  • IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues.
  • Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

The mechanism of inhibition of group VIA Ca(2+)-independent phospholipase A(2) (iPLA(2)) by fluoroketone (FK) ligands is examined by a combination of deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (DXMS) and molecular dynamics (MD). Models for iPLA(2) were built by homology with the known

Cardiolipin is a mitochondrion-specific phospholipid that stabilizes the assembly of respiratory chain complexes, favoring full-yield operation. It also mediates key steps in apoptosis. In Barth syndrome, an X chromosome-linked cardiomyopathy caused by tafazzin mutations, cardiolipins display acyl chain modifications and

Na(+)-K(+)-2Cl(-) cotransporter (NKCC2)-mediated NaCl reabsorption in the thick ascending limb (TAL) is stimulated by AVP via V2 receptor/PKA/cAMP signaling.
