Recombinant human PHOSPHO2 protein

Can be stored at +2C to +8C for 1 week. For long term storage, aliquot and store at -20C to -80C. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing cycles.

Pyridoxal phosphate phosphatase PHOSPHO2, orphan 2, also known as PHOSPHO2, belongs to the haloacid dehalogenase (HAD) superfamily. Phosphatase has a high activity toward phosphoethanolamine (PEA) and phosphocholine (PCho). PHOSPHO 1, a phosphoethanolamine/phosphocholine phosphatase, is upregulated in mineralising cells and is thought to be involved in the generation of inorganic phosphate for bone mineralization. PHOSPHO2 is a putative phosphatase sharing 42% sequence identity with PHOSPHO1. PHOSPHO1 and PHOSPHO2 are very similar, but surprisingly, recombinant PHOSPHO2 hydrolyses phosphoethanolamine and phosphocholine relatively poorly. Recombinant human PHOSPHO2 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E. coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
