Also known as
ATPAP15; purple acid phosphatase 15; PURPLE ACID PHOSPHATASE 15
Summary
Encodes PAP15, a purple acid phosphatase with phytase activity. Expression of PAP15 is developmentally and temporally regulated, with strong expression at the early stages of seedling growth and pollen germination. The expression is also organ/tissue-specific, with strongest expression in the vasculature, pollen grains, and roots. Recombinant PAP protein exhibits broad substrate specificity with moderate phytase activity. PAP15 likely mobilizes phosphorus reserves in plants, particularly during seed and pollen germination.
