Enzyme Information

3.9.1.3
Phosphohistidine phosphatase.
based on mapping to UniProt Q9NRX4
A [protein]-N-phospho-L-histidine + H(2)O = a [protein]-L-histidine + phosphate.
-!- This eukaryotic enzyme dephosphorylates phosphorylated histidine residues within proteins and peptides. -!- The enzyme acts on phosphate groups attached to both the pros- and tele-nitrogen atoms, but the pros- position is somewhat preferred (by a factor of two at the most). -!- The substrate specificity depends on the amino acid sequence or structural context of the phosphohistidine in a phosphoprotein. -!- The enzyme is also active on free phosphoramidate and peptide-bound phospholysine.
