FunctionGlycerophosphoryl diester phosphodiesterase hydrolyzes deacylated phospholipids to G3P and the corresponding alcohols.
InductionUp-regulated by low levels of phosphate in the medium. {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18083802}.
MiscellaneousThere are 2 isozymes of glycerophosphoryl diester phosphodiesterase in E.coli: a periplasmic isozyme (GlpQ) and a cytosolic isozyme (UgpQ).
SimilarityBelongs to the glycerophosphoryl diester phosphodiesterase family. {ECO:0000305}.
SimilarityContains 1 GP-PDE domain. {ECO:0000305}.
Subcellular LocationCytoplasm {ECO:0000269|PubMed:18083802}.
