The enzyme [acyl-carrier-protein] phosphodiesterase (EC 3.1.4.14) catalyzes the reaction

holo-[acyl-carrier-protein] + H2O 4-phosphopantetheine + apo-[acyl-carrier-protein]

This enzyme belongs to the family of hydrolases, specifically those acting on phosphoric diester bonds. The systematic name is holo-[acyl-carrier-protein] 4-pantetheine-phosphohydrolase. Other names in common use include ACP hydrolyase, ACP phosphodiesterase, AcpH, and [acyl-carrier-protein] 4-pantetheine-phosphohydrolase. This enzyme participates in pantothenate and CoA biosynthesis.

Structural studies

As of late 2007, two structures have been solved for this class of enzymes, with PDB accession codes 1T5B and 1TIK.
