This large family of proteins includes magnesium dependent endonucleases and a large number of phosphatases involved in intracellular signalling [1]. This family includes: AP endonuclease proteins EC:4.2.99.18 e.g Swiss:P27695, DNase I proteins EC:3.1.21.1 e.g. Swiss:P24855, Synaptojanin an inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate phosphatase EC:3.1.3.56 Swiss:O43426, Sphingomyelinase EC:3.1.4.12 Swiss:P11889 and Nocturnin Swiss:O35710.
