Plpp1 Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables diacylglycerol diphosphate phosphatase activity and lipid phosphatase activity. Involved in several processes, including phospholipid dephosphorylation; phospholipid metabolic process; and sphingolipid metabolic process. Located in caveola. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; heart; nervous system; respiratory system; and sensory organ. Orthologous to human PLPP1 (phospholipid phosphatase 1).

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Plpp1 often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
