Reconstitution & Storage | PPAPDC1A antibody can be stored at 4℃ for three months and -20℃, stable for up to one year. As with all antibodies care should be taken to avoid repeated freeze thaw cycles. Antibodies should not be exposed to prolonged high temperatures. |
Precautions | PPAPDC1A Antibody is for research use only and not for use in diagnostic or therapeutic procedures. |
Name | PLPP4 (HGNC:23531) |
---|---|
Function | Magnesium-independent phospholipid phosphatase with broad substrate specificity (PubMed:17590538). Preferentially catalyzes the conversion of diacylglycerol pyrophosphate into phosphatidate but can also act on phosphatidate and lysophosphatidate (PubMed:17590538). Phospholipid phosphatases are involved in both the synthesis of lipids and the degradation or generation of lipid-signaling molecules like diacylglycerol (PubMed:28851360). |
Cellular Location | Membrane; Multi- pass membrane protein |
Tissue Location | Expressed mainly to the brain, kidney and testis, and to a lesser extent the bone marrow, thymus, prostate, liver and uterus. |

Background
PPAPDC1A Antibody: Phosphatidate phosphatase (PAP) plays important role in lipid-signaling metabolism in eukaryotic cells. Two distinct types of PAP (PAP1 and PAP2) activity have been distinguished by their subcellular localization and differential sensitivity to N-ethylmaleimide(NEM) and Mg2+. A yeast diacylglycerol pyrophosphate (DGPP) phosphatase (DPP1) and mammalian DGPP phosphatase (PAP2) have been identified as Mg2+-independent and NEM-insensitive membrane-associated. PPAPDC1A (also known as DPPL2) and PPAPDC1B (DPPL1) form a novel type of Mg2+-independent and NEM-sensitive mammalian phosphatidate phosphatase showing broad substrate specificity. PPAPDC1A is preferentially expressed in endothelial cells. Studies of PPAPDC1A and PAP activity suggest that they may play a role in angiogenesis.
