Gene Symbol:

ACYP2 Homo sapiens

Full name:

acylphosphatase 2

Synonyms:

ACYM, ACYP, acylphosphatase-2, acylphosphatase 2, muscle type, acylphosphatase, muscle type isozyme, acylphosphate phosphohydrolase 2, testicular tissue protein Li 11

Genomic Location:

Chr 2: 54195914-54385941

Description:

Acylphosphatase can hydrolyze the phosphoenzyme intermediate of different membrane pumps, particularly the Ca2+/Mg2+-ATPase from sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle. Two isoenzymes have been isolated, called muscle acylphosphatase and erythrocyte acylphosphatase on the basis of their tissue localization. This gene encodes the muscle-type isof...

View Full Description

Acylphosphatase can hydrolyze the phosphoenzyme intermediate of different membrane pumps, particularly the Ca2+/Mg2+-ATPase from sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle. Two isoenzymes have been isolated, called muscle acylphosphatase and erythrocyte acylphosphatase on the basis of their tissue localization. This gene encodes the muscle-type isoform (MT). An increase of the MT isoform is associated with muscle differentiation. Several transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
