Application

All Prestige Antibodies®Powered by Atlas Antibodies is developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project . Each antibody is tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues. These images can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link. We also provide Prestige Antibodies® protocols and other useful information.Anti-PLA2G4C antibody produced in rabbit has been used in western blotting, immunofluorescence and immunoprecipitation.

Biochem/physiol Actions

PLA2G4C (phospholipase A2 group IVC) is responsible for the release of fatty acids from phospholipids. It plays an important role in the generation of prostaglandins and remodeling of cellular membrane. Cytoplasmic PLA2G4C participates in arachidonic acid metabolism. PLA2G4C also exhibits lysophospholipase and transacylation activity. Mutation in this gene, rs1549637 (T>A), might be associated with the susceptibility to schizophrenia. Polymorphism in this gene controls the disease outcome in patients with colorectal cancer. It is also involved in the chemotaxis of breast cancer cells. Silencing of this gene suppresses EGF (epidermal growth factor)-mediated chemotaxis in breast cancer cell lines. PLA2G4C variants can increase the levels of prostaglandins, thereby influencing preterm birth risk.

Features and Benefits

Prestige Antibodies® are highly characterized and extensively validated antibodies with the added benefit of all available characterization data for each target being accessible via the Human Protein Atlas portal linked just below the product name at the top of this page. The uniqueness and low cross-reactivity of the Prestige Antibodies® to other proteins are due to a thorough selection of antigen regions, affinity purification, and stringent selection. Prestige antigen controls are available for every corresponding Prestige Antibody and can be found in the linkage section.Every Prestige Antibody is tested in the following ways: IHC tissue array of 44 normal human tissues and 20 of the most common cancer type tissues. Protein array of 364 human recombinant protein fragments.

General description

The gene PLA2G4C (phospholipase A2 group IVC) is mapped to human chromosome 19. The encoded protein belongs to the phospholipase A2 family of proteins. PLA2G4C is mainly expressed in the brain, heart and skeletal muscle. The protein is present in the endoplasmatic reticulum and mitochondria.
