PLD2

Phospholipase D2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the PLD2 gene.

Function

Phosphatidylcholine (PC)-specific phospholipases D (PLDs) catalyze the hydrolysis of PC to produce phosphatidic acid and choline. Activation of PC-specific PLDs occurs as a consequence of agonist stimulation of both tyrosine kinase and G protein-coupled receptors. PC-specific PLDs have been proposed to function in regulated secretion, cytoskeletal reorganization, transcriptional regulation, and cell cycle control.[supplied by OMIM]

Interactions

PLD2 has been shown to interact with:

  • ARF1,
  • Aldolase A,
  • Amphiphysin,
  • BIN1,
  • Caveolin 1,
  • Glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate dehydrogenase,
  • PLCG1,
  • PRKCD,
  • Src, and
  • Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein.
  • Inhibitors

  • N-(2-(1-(3-fluorophenyl)-4-oxo-1,3,8-triazaspiro[4.5]decan-8-yl)ethyl)-2-naphthamide: 75-fold selective versus PLD1, IC50 = 20 nM.
