Summary
Summary of gene provided in NCBI Entrez Gene.
|
The protein encoded by this gene functions as both a phosphodiesterase, which cleaves phosphodiester bonds at the 5` end of oligonucleotides, and a phospholipase, which catalyzes production of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) in extracellular fluids. LPA evoke |
