Phosphatase Classification: Fold CC1: Superfamily CC1: Family DSP: Subfamily STYXL1

STYXL1 (MK-STYX) is pseudophosphatase (catalytically inactive).

Evolution

STYXL1 is found in metazoa but lost in ecdysozoa (arthropoda and nematoda). It is usually a copy per genome.

Domain

STYXL1 has two domains, N-terminal rhodanese domain and C-terminal the phosphatase domain.

Function

Human STYXL1 is expressed in most tissues (see GTEx data).
