catalytic activity:1-phosphatidyl-1D-myo-inositol 4,5-bisphosphate + H(2)O = 1D-myo-inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate + diacylglycerol.,cofactor:Binds 3 calcium ions per subunit. Two of the calcium ions are bound to the C2 domain.,domain:The C2 domain is a Ca(2+)-dependent membrane-targeting module.,domain:The PH domain mediates interaction with the surface membrane by binding to PIP2.,enzyme regulation:Strongly activated by phosphatidic acid. Inhibited by phosphatidylethanolamine (PtdEtn), phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho), sphingomyelin and phosphatidylserine (PtdSer).,function:Hydrolyzes the phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PIP2) to generate 2 second messenger molecules diacylglycerol (DAG) and inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3). DAG mediates the activation of protein kinase C (PKC), while IP3 releases Ca(2+) from intracellular stores. Essential for trophoblast and placental development. May participate in cytokinesis by hydrolyzing PIP2 at the cleavage furrow.,induction:Down-regulated by Ca(2+) and cAMP.,similarity:Contains 1 C2 domain.,similarity:Contains 1 PH domain.,similarity:Contains 1 PI-PLC X-box domain.,similarity:Contains 1 PI-PLC Y-box domain.,similarity:Contains 3 EF-hand domains.,subcellular location:Localizes at the cleavage furrow during cytokinesis.,tissue specificity:Present in corneal epithelial cells (at protein level).,
