IMPA2 Proteins and Enzymes

IMPA2, also known as Inositol monophosphatase 2, has a 288 amino acid isoform that is 31 kDa and a short 261 amino acid that is 29 kDa, catalyzes the dephosphoylration of inositol monophosphate and plays an important role in phosphatidylinositol signaling, can use myo-inositol monophosphates, scylloinositol 1,4-diphosphate, glucose-1-phosphate, beta-glycerophosphate, and 2'-AMP as substrates, and serves as possible pharmacological target for lithium Li+ action in brain.
