Phosphatase Classification: Superfamily Cys-based III: Family SSU72

Ssu72 can be found in all the unikonts (animals, choanoflagellates, fungi, and amoebozoan), plants/algae, Heterokonts, Trichomonas vaginalis (but not Giardia or Trypanasoma or Leishmania). Most SSU72 consist almost entirely of the phosphatase domain.

The phosphatase activity of Ssu72 is important for Pol II transcription and termination and for gene looping. It catalyzes CTD Serine-5 dephosphorylation in association with the Pta1 component of the CPF complex. In yeast, Ssu72 is required for pre-mRNA 3’-end cleavage, but so far no evidence exists implicating mammalian Ssu72 in that processing [1] [2].
