MINPP1, CT (MINPP1, MIPP, Multiple inositol polyphosphate phosphatase 1, 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate 3-phosphatase, Inositol (1,3,4,5)-tetrakisphosphate 3-phosphatase) (FITC)

This gene encodes multiple inositol polyphosphate phosphatase; an enzyme that removes 3-phosphate from inositol phosphate substrates. It is the only enzyme known to hydrolzye inositol pentakisphosphate and inositol hexakisphosphate. This enzyme also converts 2,3 bisphosphoglycerate (2,3-BPG) to 2-phosphoglycerate; an activity formerly thought to be exclusive to 2,3-BPG synthase/2-phosphatase (BPGM) in the Rapoport-Luebering shunt of the glycolytic pathway. Applications: Suitable for use in Western Blot and FLISA. Other potential application, though not tested is Direct Flow Cytometry. Other applications...
