EC Tree > 3 Hydrolases > 3.1 Acting on ester bonds > 3.1.3 Phosphoric-monoester hydrolases > 3.1.3.51 dolichyl-phosphatase
Dolichyl-phosphatase is a membrane-associated phosphomonoesterase that hydrolyses dolichyl phosphate into dolichol and inorganic phosphate. By recycling the lipid carrier used in N-linked protein glycosylation and in bacterial wall teichoic-acid assembly, it controls the availability of dolichol phosphate for glycan donor formation. It appears in viruses and cellular organisms and contains a transmembrane HAD-like phosphatase domain.
