Preparation and Storage

Background: PLC-beta 4

PLC-beta 4 (phospholipase C-beta 4; also PLCretA) is a 130 kDa member of the beta -type PLC isozyme family. It is notably expressed in cerebellum and retina. PLC-beta 4 is associated with rhodopsin family GPCRs, where activation of Gq alpha subunits initiates PLC-beta 4 hydrolysis of PIP2. Human PLC-beta 4 is 1175 amino acids (aa) in length. It contains a catalytic X-box (aa 313‑463) and Y-box (aa 565‑681), followed by a calcium-binding C2 domain (aa 688‑786). There are multiple isoforms. One shows an alternate start site at Met114, a second contains a 40 aa substitution for the C-terminal 22 aa, a third shows a 14 aa substitution for the N-terminal 167 aa, and other forms demonstrate combinations of these alternative splice forms. Over aa 75‑250, human PLC-beta 4 is 97% aa identical to mouse PLC-beta 4.
