Cytosolic phospholipase A₂ is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PLA2G4A gene.^[5]^[6]

Function

This gene encodes a member of the cytosolic phospholipase A₂ group IV family. The enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of membrane phospholipids to release arachidonic acid which is subsequently metabolized into eicosanoids. Eicosanoids, including prostaglandins and leukotrienes, are lipid-based cellular hormones that regulate hemodynamics, inflammatory responses, and other intracellular pathways. The hydrolysis reaction also produces lysophospholipids that are converted into platelet-activating factor. The enzyme is activated by increased intracellular Ca²⁺ levels and phosphorylation, resulting in its translocation from the cytosol and nucleus to perinuclear membrane vesicles.^[6]

Interactions

PLA2G4A has been shown to interact with histone acetyltransferase KAT5.^[7]

Clinical significance

Mutations in this gene have been associated with multifocal stenosing ulceration of the small intestine.^[8]
