Primary Drug Target
| Name | Probable low molecular weight protein-tyrosine-phosphatase epsP | | Gene Name | epsP | | Synonyms | EC 3.1.3.48 | | General Function | Signal transduction mechanisms | | Specific Function | May be involved in assembly or function of the EPS I polymerization/export complex and/or the epsB ATPase. Alternatively it may function in the removal of the terminal phosphate from C55-isoprenyl pyrophosphate in order to recycle the C55-isoprenyl phosphate lipid carrier used in the synthesis of polysaccharide repeat units | | Reaction | protein tyrosine phosphate + H2O = protein tyrosine + phosphate |
