Comments
According to the literature [2] and [3], His12 (of 1rpa/1rpt) acts as nucleophile, which attacks the phosphorous atom of the phosphate ester, whilst Asp258 protonates the leaving group. At the next stage, the deprotonated Asp258 abstracts proton from the water, which hydrolyzes the phosphorylated imidazole ring of His12 [2].
Moreover, the three positively charged arginine residues (Arg11, Arg15, Arg79) near His12 play an important role in the catalysis, as follows [2];
(1) The positive charged groups lower the pKa of the nucelophilic histidine (His12), so that the acidic phosphatase can function below pH 7.
(2) These groups will orient the phosphate group in a proper position so that the nucleophilic attack at the phosphorous atom can take place while the phosphorous-oxygen bond is cleaved.
