ACP1

Function

Acts on tyrosine phosphorylated proteins, low-MW aryl phosphates and natural and synthetic acyl phosphates. Isoform 3 does not possess phosphatase activity.

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the low molecular weight phosphotyrosine protein phosphatase family.

Tissue specificity

T-lymphocytes express only isoform 2.
