IUBMB Enzyme Nomenclature

EC 3.1.3.106

Accepted name: 2-lysophosphatidate phosphatase

Reaction: a 1-acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate + H2O = a 1-acyl-sn-glycerol + phosphate

Other name(s): 1-acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphatase; CPC3 (gene name); PHM8 (gene name)

Systematic name: 1-acyl-sn-glycerol 3-phosphate phosphohydrolase

Comments: The enzyme has been studied from the plants Arachis hypogaea (peanut) and Arabidopsis thaliana (thale cress) and from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The enzyme from yeast, but not from the plants, requires Mg2+.
