ACYP2

From English Wikipedia @ Freddythechick

An Error has occurred retrieving Wikidata item for infobox Acylphosphatase-2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ACYP2 gene.[1][2]

Function

Acylphosphatase can hydrolyze the phosphoenzyme intermediate of different membrane pumps, particularly the Ca2+/Mg2+-ATPase from sarcoplasmic reticulum of skeletal muscle. Two isoenzymes have been isolated, called muscle acylphosphatase and erythrocyte acylphosphatase on the basis of their tissue localization. This gene encodes the muscle-type isoform (MT). An increase of the MT isoform is associated with muscle differentiation.[2]
