PYP-1, inorganic pyrophosphatase, is required for larval development and intestinal function in C. elegans.

FEBS letters - 27 Nov 2007

Ko Kyung Min, Lee Wonhae, Yu Jae-Ran, Ahnn Joohong

Abstract excerpt

Inorganic pyrophosphatase (PPase) catalyzes the hydrolysis of inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) into phosphate (Pi), which provides a thermodynamic driving force for important biosynthetic reactions. The nematode Caenorhabditis elegans gene C47E12.4 encodes a PPase (PYP-1) which shows 54% amino acid identity with human PPase. PYP-1 exhibits specific enzyme activity and is mainly expressed in the intestinal and...
