Triphosphate—protein phosphotransferase


In enzymology, a triphosphate-protein phosphotransferase is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction
Thus, the two substrates of this enzyme are triphosphate and microsomal-membrane protein, whereas its two products are diphosphate and phospho-.

Classification

This enzyme belongs to the family of transferases, specifically those transferring phosphorus-containing groups that are not covered by other phosphotransferase families.

Nomenclature

The systematic name of this enzyme class is triphosphate: phosphotransferase. Other names in common use include diphosphate:microsomal-membrane-protein O-phosphotransferase, ', DiPPT , pyrophosphate:protein phosphotransferase , diphosphate-protein phosphotransferase , diphosphate: O-phosphotransferase, and '.
