In enzymology, an acylphosphatase (EC 3.6.1.7) is an enzyme that catalyzes the following chemical reaction:[3]
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are acylphosphate and H2O, whereas its two products are carboxylate and phosphate.
Function
This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on acid anhydrides in phosphorus-containing anhydrides. The systematic name of this enzyme class is acylphosphate phosphohydrolase. Other names in common use include acetylphosphatase, 1,3-diphosphoglycerate phosphatase, acetic phosphatase, Ho 1-3, and GP 1-3.
This enzyme participates in 3 metabolic pathways:
Structural studies
Structures of this enzyme have been solved by both NMR and X-ray crystallography. See the links to PDB structures in the info boxes on the right for a current list of structures available in the PDB. The protein contains a beta sheet stacked on two alpha helices described by CATH as an Alpha-Beta Plait fold. The active site sits between sheet and helices and contains an arginine and an asparagine.[4] Most structures are monomeric [5]
Isozymes
Humans express the following two acylphosphatase isozymes:

InterPro entry IPR001792
Acylphosphatase (EC) is an enzyme of approximately 98 amino acid residues that specifically catalyses the hydrolysis of the carboxyl-phosphate bond of acylphosphates [PUBMED:1664426], its substrates including 1,3-diphosphoglycerate and carbamyl phosphate [PUBMED:2538623]. The enzyme has a mainly beta-sheet structure with 2 short alpha-helical segments. It is distributed in a tissue-specific manner in a wide variety of species, although its physiological role is as yet unknown [PUBMED:2538623]: it may, however, play a part in the regulation of the glycolytic pathway and pyrimidine biosynthesis [PUBMED:2830253]. There are two known isozymes. One seems to be specific to muscular tissues, the other, called 'organ-common type', is found in many different tissues. A number of bacterial and archebacterial hypothetical proteins are highly similar to that enzyme and that probably possess the same activity.
An acylphosphatase-like domain is also found in some prokaryotic hydrogenase maturation HypF carbamoyltransferases [PUBMED:9799289, PUBMED:12206761].

We store a range of different sequence alignments for families. As well as the seed alignment from which the family is built, we provide the full alignment, generated by searching the sequence database (reference proteomes) using the family HMM. We also generate alignments using four representative proteomes (RP) sets, the UniProtKB sequence database, the NCBI sequence database, and our metagenomics sequence database. More...
View options
We make a range of alignments for each Pfam-A family. You can see a description of each above. You can view these alignments in various ways but please note that some types of alignment are never generated while others may not be available for all families, most commonly because the alignments are too large to handle.

HMM logos is one way of visualising profile HMMs. Logos provide a quick overview of the properties of an HMM in a graphical form. You can see a more detailed description of HMM logos and find out how you can interpret them here. More...
Trees
This page displays the phylogenetic tree for this family's seed alignment. We use FastTree to calculate neighbour join trees with a local bootstrap based on 100 resamples (shown next to the tree nodes). FastTree calculates approximately-maximum-likelihood phylogenetic trees from our seed alignment.
Note: You can also download the data file for the tree.

Structures
For those sequences which have a structure in the Protein DataBank, we use the mapping between UniProt, PDB and Pfam coordinate systems from the PDBe group, to allow us to map Pfam domains onto UniProt sequences and three-dimensional protein structures. The table below shows the structures on which the Acylphosphatase domain has been found. There are 71 instances of this domain found in the PDB. Note that there may be multiple copies of the domain in a single PDB structure, since many structures contain multiple copies of the same protein sequence.
