PLCG2 (1-phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate phosphodiesterase gamma-2) is an enzyme. The public catalogues list it as a drug target and a biomarker, and clinical evidence ties its variants to diagnosis, prognosis or drug response. Tied to Chronic lymphocytic leukaemia.
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. It is a crucial enzyme in transmembrane signalling.
CIViC holds 3 clinical evidence items and 0 assertions across 3 variants, naming Venetoclax.

No product in this corpus aims at PLCG2 yet. Inhibitors are shaped to fit the enzyme's active site so the reaction the cancer relies on stops.
Specificity not established: no corpus medicine is aimed at it and the catalogues give it only the roles drug-target, biomarker; HPA finds the RNA tissue enhanced, which says where the protein sits but not whether the tumour differs from normal tissue. HPA PLCG2: RNA tissue enhanced (lymphoid tissue 42 nTPM); high antibody staining in 8 normal tissues; highest cancer staining lymphoma (11 of 12 high). Distribution: 1 cancer family in the corpus carries a prevalence row, label threshold or catalogue link for it (Leukaemia); Open Targets associates it with 0 specific cancer types at or above 0.5. (No rule of scripts/fetch-target-specificity.ts fired.)
