PPA2 - inorganic pyrophosphatase 2 Gene
Also Known as SCFI; SCFAI; HSPC124; SID6-306
Species: Homo sapiens
About PPA2
This gene has 22 transcripts (splice variants), 220 orthologues, 1 paralogue and is associated with 3 phenotypes. Ubiquitous expression in kidney (RPKM 25.8), colon (RPKM 25.1) and 25 other tissues.
Summary
The protein encoded by this gene is localized to the mitochondrion, is highly similar to members of the inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPase) family, and contains the signature sequence essential for the catalytic activity of PPase. PPases catalyze the hydrolysis of pyrophosphate to inorganic phosphate, which is important for the phosphate metabolism of cells. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2008]
