Abstract

This entry includes vegetative storage protein (VSP) and acid phosphatase 1 (APS1) from plants, and some uncharacterised proteins from bacteria. [ 1 , 2 ].

Arabidopsis VSP, including VSP1 and VSP2, are acid phosphatases involved in plant defense and flower development. Their structures have been resolved [ 3 ].
