Gene information for PPA1 (Homo sapiens)
(Information is obtained from NCBI Gene database)
Entrez gene ID5464
Official gene symbolPPA1
Full namepyrophosphatase (inorganic) 1
Aliases,IOPPP,MGC111556,PP,PP1,SID6-8061,
Gene summaryThe protein encoded by this gene is a member of the inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPase) family. PPases catalyze the hydrolysis of pyrophosphate to inorganic phosphate, which is important for the phosphate metabolism of cells. Studies of a similar protein in bovine suggested a cytoplasmic localization of this enzyme. [provided by RefSeq]
