Phosphatase Classification: Superfamily Cys-based III: Family LMWPTP

Function

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].

Evolution

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).
