Psph Gene Summary [Mouse]

Predicted to enable L-phosphoserine phosphatase activity; magnesium ion binding activity; and protein homodimerization activity. Acts upstream of or within in utero embryonic development. Predicted to be located in cytosol. Predicted to be active in cytoplasm. Is expressed in several structures, including alimentary system; brain; integumental system; liver; and urinary system. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in PSPH deficiency. Orthologous to human PSPH (phosphoserine phosphatase). [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 Psph often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
