TEXT

Description

Acylphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.7) is a hydrolase that specifically catalyzes the hydrolysis of the carboxyl-phosphate bond of acyl phosphates. It is a small (relative molecular mass about 11 kD) and stable enzyme that is distributed among a wide variety of species and tissues. The enzyme has been purified from skeletal muscle of various mammals and birds and the primary structures determined. The primary structure is well conserved among different species (summary by Modesti et al., 1993). Also see erythrocyte acylphosphatase (ACYP1; 600875).


Cloning and Expression

Modesti et al. (1993) constructed a DNA sequence coding for human muscle acylphosphatase and studied its expression in E. coli and S. cerevisiae.
