Phosphatase Subfamily PPIP5K
Phosphatase Classification: Fold HP: Superfamily HP (histidine phosphatase): Family HP, branch 2: PPIP5K
PPIP5K is a phosphoinositol kinase that also has a pseudophosphatase domain which bind to PtdIns(3,4,5)P3. PPIP5K converts InsP6 and 5-InsP7 to 1-InsP7 and InsP8.
Evolution
PPIP5K is found in most eukaryotes. Most vertebrates have at least two copies, while invertebrates usually have one.
Domain
PPIP5K has two domains: N-terminal RimK/ATP-grasp domain, and C-terminal HP2 domain [1]. The RimK is the active kinase domain [1, 2].
Unlike other members of HP2 family which are protein or non-protein phosphatases, the HP2 domain of PPIP5K is not catalytically active. Instead, this HP2 domain is specialized for binding PtdIns(3,4,5)P3, as a partial PH (pleckstrin homology) consensus sequence is spliced into this HP2 domain [3].
