1-phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate phosphodiesterase gamma-2

The PLCG2 gene encodes a transmembrane signaling enzyme that is involved in signal transduction in growth and immune responses. Mutations cause autosomal dominant autoinflammation, antibody deficiency, and immune dysregulation syndrome and familial cold autoinflammatory syndrome 3.
