MPPED2 Proteins and Enzymes

MPPED2 likely encodes a metallophosphoesterase. The encoded protein may play a role a brain development. Alternatively spliced transcript variants have been described. The unprocessed precursor is 294 amino acids in length and has a predicted molecular weight of 33.6KDa. It belongs to the UPF0046 familly and is predominantly expressed in fetal brain.
