PDXP

Pyridoxal 5-prime-phosphate (PLP) is the active form of vitamin B6 that acts as a coenzyme in maintaining biochemical homeostasis. The preferred degradation route from PLP to 4-pyridoxic acid involves the dephosphorylation of PLP by PDXP (Jang et al., 2003 [PubMed 14522954]).[supplied by OMIM, Mar 2008]

Pyridoxal Phosphatase

Functions as a pyridoxal phosphate (PLP) phosphatase, which also catalyzes the dephosphorylation of pyridoxine 5'-phosphate (PNP) and pyridoxamine 5'-phosphate (PMP), with order of substrate preference PLP> PNP> PMP and therefore plays a role in vitamin B6 metabolism (PubMed:14522954, PubMed:8132548).
Also functions as a protein serine phosphatase that specifically dephosphorylates 'Ser-3' in proteins of the actin-depolymerizing factor (ADF)/cofilin family like CFL1 and DSTN. Thereby, regulates cofilin-dependent actin cytoskeleton reorganization, being required for normal progress through mitosis and normal cytokinesis. Does not dephosphorylate phosphothreonines in LIMK1. Does not dephosphorylate peptides containing phosphotyrosine (PubMed:15580268).

Colocalizes with the actin cytoskeleton in membrane ruffles and lamellipodia. Diffusely distributed throughout the cytosol during pro-metaphase and metaphase. Detected at the dynamic cell poles during telophase. Detected at the cleavage furrow and contractile ring during cytokinesis. Transiently detected at the plasma membrane in late stages of cytokinesis. Detected at the midbody.
