Protein
Phospholipase A2-gamma
Organism
Arabidopsis thaliana
Function
PA2 catalyzes the calcium-dependent hydrolysis of the 2-acyl groups in 3-sn-phosphoglycerides. Releases lysophospholipids (LPLs) and free fatty acids (FFAs) from membrane phospholipids in response to hormones and other external stimuli. Plays a role in pollen development and germination and tube growth.
Similarity
Belongs to the phospholipase A2 family.
