Description

BPNT2 encodes bisphosphate 3'-nucleotidase 2, an enzyme that catalyzes the dephosphorylation of 3'(2'),5'-bisphosphate nucleosides, including 3'-phosphoadenosine 5'-phosphate (PAP) and inositol 1,4-bisphosphate. This activity is essential for sulfate metabolism and phosphoinositide signaling. The gene is located on chromosome 8q21.13 and is expressed in multiple tissues.

Protein Summary

BPNT2 is a 307-amino acid protein belonging to the inositol monophosphatase family. It functions as a homodimer and requires magnesium for activity. The enzyme dephosphorylates PAP to AMP, regulating sulfate conjugation, and also acts on inositol bisphosphates, linking it to phosphoinositide signaling.
