General annotation (Comments)

Function

Tyrosine phosphatase that specifically dephosphorylates 'Tyr-142' of histone H2AX (H2AXY142ph). 'Tyr-142' phosphorylation of histone H2AX plays a central role in DNA repair and acts as a mark that distinguishes between apoptotic and repair responses to genotoxic stress. Promotes efficient DNA repair by dephosphorylating H2AX, promoting the recruitment of DNA repair complexes containing MDC1. Its function as histone phosphatase probably explains its role in transcription regulation during organogenesis. Coactivates SIX1. Seems to coactivate SIX2, SIX4 and SIX5. Together with SIX1 and DACH2 seem to be involved in myogenesis. May be involved in development of the eye. Interaction with GNAZ and GNAI2 prevents nuclear translocation and transcriptional activity. Ref.11

Catalytic activity

Protein tyrosine phosphate + H2O = protein tyrosine + phosphate. Ref.11

Cofactor

Binds 1 Mg2+ ion per subunit.

Subunit structure

Interacts with GNAZ and GNAI2. Interacts with DACH2 and SIX1, and probably with SIX2, SIX4 and SIX5. Interacts with CAPN8 By similarity. Ref.9

Subcellular location

Cytoplasm. Nucleus Ref.9 Ref.10.

Tissue specificity

Highest expression in muscle with lower levels in kidney, placenta, pancreas, brain and heart.

Developmental stage

At the begin of fourth week of development detected in cytoplasm of somite cells. Between the sixth and eighth week of development detected in cytoplasm of limb bud cells. Ref.10

Sequence similarities

Belongs to the HAD-like hydrolase superfamily. EYA family.

Biophysicochemical properties

Kinetic parameters:

KM=1.9 µM for H2AXY142ph Ref.11

KM=80 µM for H2AXS139ph

Sequence caution

The sequence AAH13882.2 differs from that shown. Reason: Erroneous initiation. Translation N-terminally shortened.

Alternative products

This entry describes 3 isoforms produced by alternative splicing. [Align] [Select]

Note: Experimental confirmation may be lacking for some isoforms.
Isoform 1 (identifier: O00167-1)

This isoform has been chosen as the 'canonical' sequence. All positional information in this entry refers to it. This is also the sequence that appears in the downloadable versions of the entry.
Isoform 2 (identifier: O00167-2)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     99-122: Missing.
Isoform 3 (identifier: O00167-3)

The sequence of this isoform differs from the canonical sequence as follows:
     401-479: Missing.
