Native AphA class B acid phosphatase/phosphotransferase from E. coli
Structural highlights
FunctionAPHA_ECOLI Dephosphorylates several organic phosphate monoesters including 3'- and 5'-nucleotides, 2'-deoxy-5'-nucleotides, pNPP, phenyl phosphate, glycerol 2-phosphate, ribose 5-phosphate, O-phospho-L-amino acids and phytic acid, showing the highest activity with aryl phosphoesters (pNPP, phenyl phosphate and O-phospho-L-tyrosine), and to a lesser extent with 3'- and 5'-nucleotides. No activity toward ATP, phosphodiesters, glycerol-1-phosphate, glucose 1-phosphate, glucose 6-phosphate, NADP, GTP or 3',5'-cAMP, ADP or ATP. Also has a phosphotransferase activity catalyzing the transfer of low-energy phosphate groups from organic phosphate monoesters to free hydroxyl groups of various organic compounds. Capable of transferring phosphate from either pNPP or UMP to adenosine or uridine. Does not exhibit nucleotide phosphomutase activity.[1] [2] Evolutionary ConservationCheck, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedAphA is a magnesium-dependent, bacterial class B acid phosphatase that catalyzes the hydrolysis of a variety of phosphoester substrates and belongs to the DDDD superfamily of phosphohydrolases. The recently reported crystal structure of AphA from Escherichia coli has revealed the quaternary structure of the enzyme together with hints about its catalytic mechanism. The present work reports the crystal structures of AphA from E. coli in complex with substrate, transition-state, and intermediate analogues. The structures provide new insights into the mechanism of the enzyme and allow a revision of some aspects of the previously proposed mechanism that have broader implications for all the phosphatases of the DDDD superfamily. Structural insights into the catalytic mechanism of the bacterial class B phosphatase AphA belonging to the DDDD superfamily of phosphohydrolases.,Leone R, Cappelletti E, Benvenuti M, Lentini G, Thaller MC, Mangani S J Mol Biol. 2008 Dec 12;384(2):478-88.
