LYPLA1 Antibody / Lysophospholipase 1 / LPL-I

Acyl-protein thioesterase 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the LYPLA1 gene. This gene encodes a member of the alpha/beta hydrolase superfamily. The encoded protein functions as a homodimer, exhibiting both depalmitoylating as well as lysophospholipase activity, and may be involved in Ras localization and signaling. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants. Pseudogenes of this gene have been defined on chromosomes 4, 6, and 7.
