The histidine phosphatase LHPP of Penaeus vannamei is involved in shrimp hemocytes apoptosis.

ABSTRACT: LHPP (Phospholysine Phosphohistidine Inorganic Pyrophosphate Phosphatase) is a protein histidine phosphatase that modulates a hidden posttranslational modification called histidine phosphorylation. LHPP also acts as a tumor suppressor, which plays a pivotal role in various cellular processes. However, whether LHPP participates in the regulation of invertebrate's immunity is still unknown. Here we characterized a LHPP homolog in P. vannamei (designated PvLHPP), with a 807 bp length of open reading frame (ORF) encoding a putative protein of 268 amino acids. Sequence analysis revealed that PvLHPP contains a typical hydrolase 6 and hydrolase-like domain, which was conserved from invertebrate to vertebrate. PvLHPP was ubiquitously expressed in tissues and induced in
