Several distinct genes encode alkaline phosphatases (APs) in mice with different tissue-specific expression patterns. The Alpl gene, also known as Akp2, encodes the liver/bone/kidney isozyme, also known as the tissue-nonspecific AP (TNAP) (1). The Alpl gene is a key regulator of bone mineralization in mice (2). A variety of mutations in the human ALPL gene leads to different forms of hypophosphatasia, characterized by poorly mineralized cartilage and bones (3). The native ALPL is a glycosylated homodimer attached to the membrane through a GPI-anchor. The C-terminal pro peptide (residues 504 to 524) is not present in the mature form.
