Abstract
Protein phosphorylation appears to be a universal mechanism of protein regulation. Genomics has provided the means to compile inventories of protein phosphatases across a wide selection of organisms and this has supplied insights into the evolution of this group of enzymes. Protein phosphatases evolved independently several times yielding the groups we observe today. Starting from a core catalytic domain, phosphatases evolved by a series of gene duplication events and by adopting the use of regulatory subunits and/or fusion with novel functional modules or domains. Recent analyses also suggest that the serine/threonine specific enzymes are more ancient than the PTPs (protein tyrosine phosphatases). It is likely that the latter played a key role at the onset of metazoan evolution in conjunction with the tremendous expansion of tyrosine kinases and PTPs at this point. In the present review, we discuss the evolution of the PTPs, the serine/threonine specific PPP (phosphoprotein phosphatase) and PPM (metallo-dependent protein phosphatase) families and the more recently discovered phosphatases that utilize an aspartate-based catalytic mechanism. We will also highlight examples of convergent evolution and several phosphatases which are unique to plants.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
