DESCRIPTION

Acylphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.7) is a small cytosolic enzyme with a molecular mass of 11 kD that is expressed in many vertebrate tissues. The enzyme catalyzes the hydrolysis of the carboxyl-phosphate bond of acyl phosphates. Two isoenzymes have been isolated, called muscle acylphosphatase (102595) and erythrocyte acylphosphatase on the basis of their tissue localization (summary by Fiaschi et al., 1995).

CLONING

Liguri et al. (1986) reported the isolation and characterization of a human erythrocyte acylphosphatase isoenzyme. The protein contains 98 amino acid residues; it has an acetylated N terminus and does not contain cysteine. It shares 56% sequence identity with human muscle acylphosphatase. The erythrocyte enzyme showed hydrolytic activity on acyl phosphates with higher affinity than the muscle enzyme for some substrates and phosphorylated inhibitors. Fiaschi et al. (1995) isolated and characterized 3 independent cDNAs coding for the erythrocyte isoform. All the clones were incomplete at the 5-prime end, but Northern blot analysis using cDNA as a probe showed the presence of an unusually long 5-prime untranslated region in the mRNA.

MAPPING

By analysis of somatic cell hybrids and FISH, Fiaschi et al. (1998) mapped the ACYP1 gene to human chromosome 14q24.3. ... More on the omim web site
