Subunit: Homodimer (By similarity) Caution: PubMed:9305923 states that this phosphatase does not hydrolyze sphingosine 1-phosphate while PubMed:9705349 states that it does
Tissue specificity: Ubiquitously expressed with highest expression found in prostate. Isoform 1 is predominant in kidney, lung, placenta and liver. Isoform 2 is predominant in heart and pancreas. Found to be down-regulated in colon adenocarcinomas [IMAGE] Custom PCR Arrays f
Function: Broad-specificity phosphohydrolase that dephosphorylates exogenous bioactive glycerolipids and sphingolipids. Catalyzes the conversion of phosphatidic acid (PA) to diacylglycerol (DG). Pivotal regulator of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) signaling in the cardiovascular system. Major enzyme responsible of dephosphorylating LPA in platelets, which terminates signaling actions of LPA. May control circulating, and possibly also regulate localized, LPA levels resulting from platelet activation. It has little activity towards ceramide-1-phosphate (C-1-P) and sphingosine-1-phosphate (S-1-P). The relative catalytic efficiency is LPA > PA > S-1-P > C-1-P. It's down-regulation may contribute to the development of colon adenocarcinoma Broad-specificity phosphohydrolase that dephosphorylates exogenous bioactive glycerolipids and sphingolipids.
