Background InformationPlatelet-activating factor acetylhydrolase IB subunit gamma (EC 3.1.1.47; UniProt Q15102; also known as PAF acetylhydrolase 29 kDa subunit, PAF-AH 29 kDa subunit, PAF-AH1b subunit alpha 1, PAF-AH subunit gamma, PAFAH subunit gamma) is encoded by the PAFAH1B3 (also known as PAFAHG) gene (Gene ID 5050) in human. Platelet-activating factor (PAF) acetylhydrolase (PAF-AH) negatively regulates PAF potency by catalyzing the removal of the acetyl group at the sn-2 position of the lipid messenger. There are two types of intracellular PAF-AH and a plasma type PAF-AH. Type I intracellular PAF-AH is a heterotrimeric G-protein-like complex composed of alpha1 (originally called gamma), alph2 (originally called alpha), and beta subunits. Both alpha1 and alpha2 contains a catalytic site. The alpha2/2 homodimer hydrolyzes PAF (1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-PC) and 1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-PE more efficiently, while the alpha1/1 homodimer and alpha1/2 heterodimer are more efficient toward 1-O-alkyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-PA than PAF. The alpha 1 subunit is reported to be up-regulated in primary human breast tumors and correlated with poor prognosis. Inactivation of alpha 1 subunit enhances cellular level of tumor-suppressing signaling lipids.
