N-acetylneuraminic acid phosphatase; nanp
Neu5ac-9-phosphate phosphatase haloacid dehalogenase-like hydrolase domain-containing protein-4; hdhd4

Neu5Ac-9-phosphate phosphatase (Neu5Ac-9-Pase; EC 3.1.3.29) dephosphorylates Neu5Ac-9-phosphate to form N-acetylneuraminate (Neu5Ac), the main form of sialic acid in vertebrates that has important roles in protein-protein and cell-cell recognition.

CLONING

Maliekal et al. (2006) purified Neu5Ac-9-Pase from rat liver and isolated the phosphatase activity. Using SDS-PAGE analysis and tandem mass spectrometry, they identified a haloacid dehalogenase-like hydrolase domain containing-4 (HDHD4) protein. Purified recombinant human HDHD4 catalyzed the dephosphorylation of Neu5Ac-9-phosphate with a catalytic efficiency more than 2 orders of magnitude higher than for any other substrate tested. The 248-amino acid human HDHD4 protein has 3 motifs found in phosphatases of the haloacid dehalogenase (HAD) family: the first with 2 extremely conserved aspartates, the second comprising a conserved serine or threonine, and the third comprising a conserved lysine and 2 conserved aspartates.

GENE STRUCTURE

Maliekal et al. (2006) determined that the human HDHD4 gene contains 2 exons.

GENE FUNCTION

Maliekal et al. (2006) determined that the phosphatase activity of human Neu5Ac-9-Pase protein was dependent on the presence of Mg(2+) and was inhibited by vanadate and Ca(2+), which is characteristic of members of the HAD family of phosphatases.

MAPPING

Maliekal et al. (2006) mapped the human NANP gene to chromosome 20p11 by alignment with mapped sequences. ... More on the omim web site
