Protein Domain : Purple acid phosphatase IPR024927

Type  Family
Description  This entry includes purple acid phosphatases (EC 3.1.3.2), which are metal dependent, binding two metal ions. Metal binding ligands and residues involved in resistance to tartrate inhibition are conserved [ ].Purple acid phosphatase 3, 4, 7, 8 and 17 are found in plants, bind zinc and iron, and the genes are predominantly transcribed in flowers [ ]. Purple acid phosphatase 17 (PAP17) is induced in response to phosphate starvation, a condition occurring in phosphate-poor soils, and the plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) and salt stress. Like mammalian acid phosphatase 5, PAP17 has peroxidation activity [].Acid phosphatase 5 (ACP5; EC 3.1.3.2) removes the mannose 6-phosphate recognition marker from lysosomal proteins. The exact site of dephosphorylation is not clear. Evidence suggests dephosphorylation may take place in a prelysosomal compartment as well as in the lysosome [ ]. ACP5 belongs to the metallophosphatase (MPP) superfamily. MPPs are functionally diverse, but all share a conserved domain with an active site consisting of two metal ions (usually manganese, iron, or zinc) co-ordinated with octahedral geometry by a cage of histidine, aspartate, and asparagine residues [].
