PPAP2A is a member of the phosphatidic acid phosphatase (PAP) family. PAPs convert phosphatidic acid to diacylglycerol, and function in de novo synthesis of glycerolipids as well as in receptor-activated signal transduction mediated by phospholipase D. This protein is an integral membrane glycoprotein, and has been shown to be a surface enzyme that plays an active role in the hydrolysis and uptake of lipids from extracellular space. The expression of PPAP2A is found to be regulated by androgen in a prostatic adenocarcinoma cell line.The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the phosphatidic acid phosphatase (PAP) family.

The expression of this gene is found to be regulated by androgen in a prostatic adenocarcinoma cell line. At least two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been described.1) Tanyi, J.L., Clin. Cancer Res. 9 (10 PT 1), 3534-3545 (2003).
