Description

PLPPR5 (Phospholipid Phosphatase Related 5) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 1p34.3. It encodes a member of the phospholipid phosphatase-related protein family, which is involved in lipid metabolism and cell signaling. The protein is predicted to be a transmembrane protein with phosphatase activity, though its exact function is not fully characterized. PLPPR5 is expressed in various tissues, with notable levels in the brain and testis.
