Comment typeDescription
CofactorName=Mn(2+); Xref=ChEBI:CHEBI:29035; Evidence={ECO:0000250}; Note=Binds 2 manganese ions per subunit. {ECO:0000250};
FunctionMetallophosphoesterase required for transport of GPI- anchor proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi. Acts in lipid remodeling steps of GPI-anchor maturation by mediating the removal of a side-chain ethanolamine-phosphate (EtNP) from the second Man (Man2) of the GPI intermediate, an essential step for efficient transport of GPI-anchor proteins (By similarity). {ECO:0000250}.
SimilarityBelongs to the metallophosphoesterase superfamily. MPPE1 family. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationGolgi apparatus, cis-Golgi network membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi intermediate compartment membrane {ECO:0000250}; Multi-pass membrane protein {ECO:0000250}. Note=Also localizes to endoplasmic reticulum exit site. {ECO:0000250}.
