Acid phosphatase 1, soluble, also known as ACP1, belongs to the phosphotyrosine protein. It functions as an acid phosphatase and a protein tyrosine phosphatase (PTPase) present in all human tissues, including adipocytes. This enzyme hydrolyzes protein tyrosine phosphate to protein tyrosine and orthophosphate, and also orthophosphoric monoesters to alcohol and orthophosphate.
