Description
Description
Protein arginine phosphatases catalyze the removal of a phosphate group from an arginine residue in a protein. (Adapted from FBrf0222054.)
Notes on Group

Based on its amino acid sequence, the single member of the PROTEIN ARGININE PHOSPHATASES group, CG31469, belongs to the low-molecular-weight protein tyrosine phosphatase (LMW-PTP) family, but it functions biochemically as a protein arginine phosphatase (FBrf0222054, FBrf0247574).
