Description
Alternative Products
Event=Alternative splicing; Named isoforms=2; Name=1; IsoId=Q9NPH0-1; Sequence=Displayed; Name=2; IsoId=Q9NPH0-2; Sequence=VSP_014121, VSP_014122; Note=No experimental confirmation available.;
Catalytic Activity
A phosphate monoester + H(2)O = an alcohol + phosphate. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23807634}.
Caution
It is uncertain whether Met-1 or Met-8 is the initiator. {ECO:0000305}.
Caution
Was originally reported to be located in the mitochondrion, but the evidence seems to be weak and contradictory with the presence of a cleaved signal sequence. {ECO:0000305|PubMed:10506173}.
Function
Hydrolyzes lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) containing a medium length fatty acid chain to the corresponding monoacylglycerol. Has highest activity with lysophosphatidic acid containing myristate (C14:0), monounsaturated oleate (C18:1) or palmitate (C16:0), and lower activity with C18:0 and C6:0 lysophosphatidic acid. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10506173, ECO:0000269|PubMed:23807634}.
Induction
Induced with the differentiation from myoblast to myotube. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10506173}.
Sequence Caution
Sequence=BAA89311.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Translation N-terminally extended.; Evidence={ECO:0000305}; Sequence=BAD92485.1; Type=Erroneous initiation; Note=Translation N-terminally shortened.; Evidence={ECO:0000305};
Similarity
Belongs to the histidine acid phosphatase family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular Location
Mitochondrion {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10506173}.
Subunit
Monomer. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:23807634}.
Tissue Specificity
Highly expressed in kidney, heart, small intestine, muscle, liver, prostate, testis, ovary and weakly expressed in thymus and colon. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:10506173, ECO:0000269|PubMed:12010880}.
