Description
PLA2G2D encodes a member of the secreted phospholipase A2 (sPLA2) family, group IID. This enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of the sn-2 acyl bond of phospholipids, releasing free fatty acids and lysophospholipids. It is involved in lipid metabolism, inflammatory responses, and host defense. The protein is expressed in various tissues, including immune cells, and has been implicated in cancer and autoimmune diseases.

Protein Summary
PLA2G2D encodes a 145-amino acid secreted phospholipase A2 (sPLA2-IID) with a conserved Ca2+-binding loop and catalytic His-Asp dyad. The protein is secreted and acts on extracellular phospholipids, generating lipid mediators such as arachidonic acid and lysophospholipids. It is expressed in immune tissues and modulates inflammatory and immune responses. Structural studies show a typical sPLA2 fold with three disulfide bonds.
