Descriptions

Patients with chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) with disease progression treated with ibrutinib has been attributed to histologic transformation or acquired mutations in BTK and PLCG2 genes. PMID: 28049639 Source: PubMed Central

The PLCG2 (phospholipase C gamma 2) gene [HGNC Gene ID: 9066] is located on chromosome 16 at position q23.3. The protein encoded by this gene is a transmembrane signaling enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of 1-phosphatidyl-1D-myo-inositol 4,5-bisphosphate to 1D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) and diacylglycerol (DAG) using calcium as a cofactor. IP3 and DAG are second messenger molecules important for transmitting signals from growth factor receptors and immune system receptors across the cell membrane. Mutations in this gene have been found in autoinflammation, antibody deficiency, and immune dysregulation syndrome and familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome 3.
