ADP-ribose 1''-phosphate phosphatase explained

ADP-ribose 1′′-phosphate phosphatase
Ec Number:3.1.3.84

ADP-ribose 1′′-phosphate phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.84, POA1, Appr1p phosphatase, Poa1p) is an enzyme with systematic name ADP-D-ribose 1′′-phosphate phosphohydrolase.[1] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction

ADP-D-ribose 1′′-phosphate + H2O

\rightleftharpoons

ADP-D-ribose + phosphate

The enzyme is highly specific for ADP-ribose 1′′-phosphate.
