  Domain Name: MPP_PAPs
purple acid phosphatases of the metallophosphatase superfamily, metallophosphatase domain. Purple acid phosphatases (PAPs) belong to a diverse family of binuclear metallohydrolases that have been identified and characterized in plants, animals, and fungi. PAPs contain a binuclear metal center and their characteristic pink or purple color derives from a charge-transfer transition between a tyrosine residue and a chromophoric ferric ion within the binuclear center. PAPs catalyze the hydrolysis of a wide range of activated phosphoric acid mono- and di-esters and anhydrides. PAPs are distinguished from the other phosphatases by their insensitivity to L-(+) tartrate inhibition and are therefore also known as tartrate resistant acid phosphatases (TRAPs). While only a few copies of PAP-like genes are present in mammalian and fungal genomes, multiple copies are present in plant genomes. PAPs belong to the metallophosphatase (MPP) superfamily. MPPs are functionally diverse, but all share a conserved domain with an active site consisting of two metal ions (usually manganese, iron, or zinc) coordinated with octahedral geometry by a cage of histidine, aspartate, and asparagine residues. The MPP superfamily includes: Mre11/SbcD-like exonucleases, Dbr1-like RNA lariat debranching enzymes, YfcE-like phosphodiesterases, purple acid phosphatases (PAPs), YbbF-like UDP-2,3-diacylglucosamine hydrolases, and acid sphingomyelinases (ASMases). The conserved domain is a double beta-sheet sandwich with a di-metal active site made up of residues located at the C-terminal side of the sheets. This domain is thought to allow for productive metal coordination.
No pairwise interactions are available for this conserved domain.

Tips:
 If you've navigated here from a protein, hovering over a position on the weblogo will display the corresponding protein position for that domain position.

 The histograms below the weblogo indicate mutations found on the domain. Red is for disease (OMIM) and blue is for SNPs.

 Functional Features are displayed as orange boxes under the histograms. You can choose which features are displayed in the box below.
