Phosphatase Classification: Fold CC1: Superfamily CC1: Family OCA

The OCA family is named after the five member genes in yeast (OCA1-5 = Oxidant-induced Cell-cycle Arrest). The family is also called plant and fungi atypical (PFA)-DSPs [1, 2].

Evolution

The OCA family is found in many eukaryotes, including fungi, plants, protists, monosiga, and sponge. It is absent from most eumetazoa, but it is found in purple urchin, lancet, ghostshark (Callorhinchus milii), Capitella teleta, owl limpet (Lottia gigantea), leech (Helobdella robusta).

Domain

OCA has a single domain, a phosphatase domain of fold CC1.

Functions

Yeast OCA members are involved in cell cycle arrest in response to oxidative damage[3], in telomere capping [4], in actin organization [5]. OCA3 has been shown to control intracellular localization of Gln3 (a phosphorylated transcriptional activator), in cooperation with Npr1 kinase [6].
