1-phosphatidylinositol-4, 5-bisphosphate phosphodiesterase epsilon-1, Pancreas-enriched phospholipase C, Phosphoinositide phospholipase C-epsilon-1, Phospholipase C-epsilon-1, PLC-epsilon-1, Plce1, PLCE1_HUMAN,
The production of the second messenger molecules diacylglycerol (DAG) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3) is mediated by activated phosphatidylinositol-specific phospholipase C enzymes. PLCE1 is a bifunctional enzyme which also regulates small GTPases of the Ras superfamily through its Ras guanine-exchange factor (RasGEF) activity. As an effector of heterotrimeric and small G-protein, it may play a role in cell survival, cell growth, actin organization and T-cell activation.
