Recombinant Human Phosphatase Orphan-2

Pyridoxal phosphate phosphatase PHOSPHO2, orphan 2 (PHOSPHO2) is a member of the haloacid dehalogenase (HAD) superfamily. Phosphatase has an elevated activity toward phosphoethanolamine (PEA) and phosphocholine (PCho). PHOSPHO 1, a phosphoethanolamine/phosphocholine phosphatase, is upregulated in mineralizing cells and is believed to be implicated in the production of inorganic phosphate for bone mineralization. PHOSPHO2 is a recognized phosphatase sharing a 42% sequence identity with PHOSPHO1. PHOSPHO1 and PHOSPHO2 are especially similar, however surprisingly recombinant PHOSPHO2 hydrolyses phosphoethanolamine and phosphocholine comparatively inadequately.

Escherichia Coli.

The PHOSPHO2 solution (0.25mg/ml) contains 20mM Tris-HCl buffer (pH 8.0), 1mM DTT, 10% glycerol and 0.1M NaCl.
