Phospholipases A2 (PLA2) form an extended class of enzymes that play an important role in signal transduction. Phospholipase A2-like (PLA2L) belongs to the secreted forms of phospholipases A2, but constitutes a new subgroup. We have assigned the gene for this enzyme to human chromosome 8q24-qter using fluorescence in situ hybridization and radiation hybrid mapping techniques.
