Synonyms: Inorganic pyrophosphatase, IOPPP, PP, PP1, SID6-8061

Background Information: PPA1 (Pyrophosphatase) belongs to the PPase family. This protein is an enzyme that catalyzes the conversion of one molecule of pyrophosphate to two phosphate ions. The hydrolysis of inorganic pyrophosphate (PPi) to two phosphate ions is utilized in many biochemical pathways to render reactions effectively irreversible. Inorganic pyrophosphatase catalyzes this hydrolysis reaction in the early steps of lipid degradation, a prominent example of this phenomenon. By promoting the rapid hydrolysis of pyrophosphate (PPi), Inorganic pyrophosphatase provides the driving force for the activation of fatty acids destined for oxidation. Recombinant human PPA1 protein, fused to His-tag at N-terminus, was expressed in E.coli and purified by using conventional chromatography techniques.
