Gene information for PPA2 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID27068
Official gene symbolPPA2
Full namepyrophosphatase (inorganic) 2
Aliases,FLJ20459,HSPC124,MGC49850,SID6-306,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is localized to the mitochondrion, is highly similar to members of the inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPase) family, and contains the signature sequence essential for the catalytic activity of PPase. PPases catalyze the hydrolysis of pyrophosphate to inorganic phosphate, which is important for the phosphate metabolism of cells. Alternate transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. [provided by RefSeq]
