Name: |
phosphoprotein phosphatase activity |
Acc: |
GO:0004721 |
Aspect: |
Molecular Function |
Desc: |
Catalysis of the reaction: a phosphoprotein + H2O = a protein + phosphate. Together with protein kinases, these enzymes control the state of phosphorylation of cell proteins and thereby provide an important mechanism for regulating cellular activity. |
Synonyms:
- protein phosphatase activity
- phosphoprotein phosphohydrolase activity
- protein phosphatase-2A activity
- protein phosphatase-2C activity
- protein phosphatase-1 activity
- protein phosphatase-2B activity
