In enzymology, a phosphonoacetate hydrolase (EC 3.11.1.2) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction

Contents

phosphonoacetate + H2O acetate + phosphate

Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are phosphonoacetate and H2O, whereas its two products are acetate and phosphate.

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on carbon-phosphorus bonds. The systematic name of this enzyme class is phosphonoacetate phosphonohydrolase. This enzyme participates in aminophosphonate metabolism. It employs one cofactor, zinc.

Structural studies

The structure of this enzyme, with the PDB accession code 1EI6, shows it adopts the alkaline phosphatase fold.

Hydrolase is a class of enzymes that commonly perform as biochemical catalysts that use water to break a chemical bond, which typically results in dividing a larger molecule into smaller molecules. Some common examples of hydrolase enzymes are esterases including lipases, phosphatases, glycosidases, peptidases, and nucleosidases.

<span class="mw-page-title-main">Acid phosphatase</span> Class of enzymes

Acid phosphatase is an enzyme that frees attached phosphoryl groups from other molecules during digestion. It can be further classified as a phosphomonoesterase. It is stored in lysosomes and functions when these fuse with endosomes, which are acidified while they function; therefore, it has an acid pH optimum. This enzyme is present in many animal and plant species.
