Phosphatidylinositol-glycan-specific phospholipase D (GPLD1)

The protein contains 840 amino acids for an estimated molecular weight of 92336 Da.

 

This protein hydrolyzes the inositol phosphate linkage in proteins anchored by phosphatidylinositol glycans (GPI-anchor) thus releasing these proteins from the membrane. (updated: Oct. 10, 2018)

CLONING

Many proteins are attached to the plasma membrane via a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor. Phosphatidylinositol-glycan (PIG)-specific phospholipases D (PLDs) selectively hydrolyze the inositol phosphate linkage, allowing release of the protein. Scallon et al. (1991) cloned a cDNA encoding a PIGPLD from a bovine liver cDNA library. The deduced amino acid sequence contains 4 regions of internal homology that are similar to the metal ion binding domains of integrin alpha subunits (see ITGA2, 192974). Bovine PIGPLD does not exhibit phosphatidylcholine-specific PLD (602382) activity. By PCR and screening of a human liver cDNA library, Tsang et al. (1992) isolated a cDNA (GENBANK L11701) encoding a PIGPLD. The protein product contains 841 amino acids, including a 24-residue signal sequence. Tsang et al. (1992) isolated a cDNA (GENBANK L11702) encoding a related but distinct PIGPLD from a human pancreas cDNA library. The pancreas-derived PIGPLD contains 840 amino acids, including a 23-residue signal sequence. LeBoeuf et al. (1998) isolated a mouse Gpld1 cDNA. They reported that the predicted mouse and human GPIPLD proteins are 74% identical. By Northern blot analysis, Schofield and Rademacher (2000) showed that expression of a 5.8-kb GPLD1 transcript is restricted to liver. Southern blot analysis indicated that GPLD1 is a single-copy gene.

GENE STRUCTURE

Schofield and Rademacher (2000) determined that the GPLD1 gene contains 25 exons and spans at least 80 kb.

MAPPING

By analysis of an interspecific backcross, LeBoeuf et al. (1998) mapped the mouse Gpld1 gene to chromosome 13. Using FISH, Schofield and Rademacher (2000) mapped the GPLD1 gene to 6p22.1. ... More on the omim web site
