Acpp Gene Summary [Mouse]
Enables thiamine phosphate phosphatase activity. Involved in nucleobase-containing small molecule metabolic process; regulation of sensory perception of pain; and thiamine metabolic process. Located in filopodium; plasma membrane; and vesicle membrane. Is expressed in epithelium of phallic urethra of female; epithelium of phallic urethra of male; genital tubercle mesenchyme of female; and urethral plate. Used to study prostate cancer. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in prostate cancer. Orthologous to human ACP3 (acid phosphatase 3). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains
A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Acpp often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
