Summary
Predicted to enable phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate phospholipase C activity. Involved in sleep. Predicted to be active in ruffle membrane. Is expressed in ALA; gonad; intestine; and non-striated muscle. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in autoinflammation, antibody deficiency, and immune dysregulation syndrome; familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome 3; hepatocellular carcinoma; and lung non-small cell carcinoma. Orthologous to several human genes including PLCG2 (phospholipase C gamma 2). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jun 2025]
