PLCXD1


Description

The PLCXD1 (phosphatidylinositol specific phospholipase C X domain containing 1) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome X|Y.

This protein, also known as Phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C, X domain containing 1, is an enzyme that plays a role in human biology. It's encoded by the PLCXD1 gene, which is located in the pseudoautosomal region 1 (PAR1) of both the X and Y chromosomes. This means that both males and females have this gene, though there are slight differences in how it's expressed.

This gene encodes an enzyme, a protein that catalyzes specific chemical reactions in the body. This particular enzyme is a phospholipase, specifically a phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C, which means it breaks down a type of lipid called phosphatidylinositol.

PLCXD1 is also known as LL0XNC01-136G2.1.
