Summary: Enables calcium-dependent phospholipase A2 activity and histone acetyltransferase binding activity. Involved in several processes, including cellular response to homocysteine; decidualization; and female gonad development. Located in perinuclear region of cytoplasm and zymogen granule. Used to study hyperglycemia. Biomarker of asthma; brain ischemia; papilloma; polycystic kidney disease; and transitional cell carcinoma. Orthologous to human PLA2G4A (phospholipase A2 group IVA).

RefSeqs maintained independently of Annotated Genomes

These reference sequences exist independently of genome builds. Explain

These reference sequences are curated independently of the genome annotation cycle, so their versions may not match the RefSeq versions in the current genome build. Identify version mismatches by comparing the version of the RefSeq in this section to the one reported in Genomic regions, transcripts, and products above.
