A Molecular Description of Acid Phosphatase

Applied Biochemistry and Biotechnology, 2012
Acid phosphatase is ubiquitous in distribution in various organisms. Although it catalyzes simple hydrolytic reactions, it is considered as an interesting enzyme in biological systems due to its involvement in different physiological activities. However, earlier reviews on acid phosphatase reveal some fragmentary information and do not give a holistic ...

Acid Phosphatase

Urologic Clinics of North America, 1979
Acid phosphatase is a ubiquitous lysosomal enzyme that hydrolyses organic phosphates at an acid pH. Although the postpuberteral prostatic epithelial cell contains a uniquely high concentration of acid phosphatase, cellular components of bone, spleen, kidney, liver, intestine, and blood also contain this enzyme.

Melanosomal acid phosphatase

Archiv f�r Dermatologische Forschung, 1971
Electronmicroscopic-cytochemical investigations of human and guinea pig (normal and irradiated) melanocytes as well as junctional nevus cells (benign juvenile melanoma) have revealed that 1) premelanosomes of pigment cells contain acid phosphatase. This confirms previous observations.

Acid phosphatase. IV. Fluoride inhibition of prostatic acid phosphatase

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1955
Abstract Inhibition of the acid phosphatase of human prostate by fluoride was shown to reach a maximum value at intermediate concentrations of fluoride and to be partially reversed by higher concentrations. The precise shape and location of the inhibition curve were influenced by ionic strength, by specific ions, and by protein concentration.

Acid phosphatase and phosphoamino acid phosphatases in murine erythroleukaemic cells

International Journal of Biochemistry, 1985
The activities of acid and alkaline phosphatases and phosphotyrosine, phosphoserine and phosphothreonine phosphatases were measured in Friend murine erythroleukaemic (MEL) cells. The effects of treating the cells with dimethyl sulphoxide (DMSO), an inducer of differentiation, were examined.

Lysosomal acid pyrophosphatase and acid phosphatase

Archives of Biochemistry and Biophysics, 1968
Acid pyrophosphatase, hydrolyzing ATP and other nucleoside triphosphates, PPi, thiamine diphosphate, and FAD, has been purified from rat liver homogenate and was separated from acid phosphatase by chromatography on CM-cellulose. ATP and PPi were hydrolyzed most rapidly at pH 5–5.4. The Km values were 0.19 mm ATP and 0.07 mm PPi.

Human prostatic acid phosphatase: cDNA cloning, gene mapping and protein sequence homology with lysosomal acid phosphatase

Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1989
The cDNAs encoding human prostatic acid phosphatase were cloned and characterized. The mRNAs contain 3' noncoding regions of heterogeneous sizes 646, 1887 or 1913 nucleotides. A dimer and a monomer of the conserved Alu-repeats are present in the longer 3'

Structure of Acid Phosphatases

2013
Acid phosphatases are enzymes that have been studied extensively due to the fact that their dysregulation is associated with pathophysiological conditions. This characteristic has been exploited for the development of diagnostic and therapeutic methods.
