FUNCTION: Hydrolyzes pyrophosphate formed during P-Ser-HPr dephosphorylation by HPrK/P. Might play a role in controlling the intracellular pyrophosphate pool (By similarity).
end case

CATALYTIC ACTIVITY: Diphosphate + H(2)O = 2 phosphate.
COFACTOR: Magnesium (Potential).
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the HAD-like hydrolase superfamily. PpaX family.
