Gene Description

CTDSP2 is a small C-terminal-domain phosphatase of the FCP/SCP family. Its aspartate-dependent phosphatase domain removes phosphate from serine residues of the RNA polymerase II C-terminal heptad repeats, with preference for Ser5. It acts in nuclear transcriptional regulation and belongs to the SCP phosphatases associated with REST-dependent repression of neuronal genes in non-neuronal cells.

GO_REF:0000120
MODIFY
Summary: CTDSP2 has a more specific RNA polymerase II CTD phosphatase activity.
Reason: The FCP1 homology domain and catalytic aspartates support phosphatase chemistry, and the curated human record and primary SCP-family study identify the RNA polymerase II CTD substrate. Use the specific CTD heptapeptide phosphatase term rather than a generic phosphatase class.

Summary: Retain the experimentally curated interaction as a non-core binding observation.
Reason: The IPI row from PMID:16724108 records a protein interaction, not a distinct catalytic function. CTDSP2 is a CTD phosphatase; generic protein binding does not identify substrate-directed catalysis or a defined adaptor mechanism. The interaction is retained without inferring that every partner is a phosphatase substrate.

Summary: CTD dephosphorylation contributes directly to regulation of RNA polymerase II transcription.
Reason: The CTD phosphorylation cycle controls transcriptional progression, and SCP-family phosphatase perturbation alters transcription. The inferred process is consistent with CTDSP2 catalysis rather than being a generic phenotype-only association.

Summary: CTDSP2 directly removes phosphate from protein substrates.

ACCEPT
Summary: RNA polymerase II CTD heptapeptide phosphatase activity is the defining molecular function.
Reason: The human protein has the FCP1-homology catalytic domain, including active-site Asp107 and Asp109, and the curated primary-study annotation assigns the SCP-family CTD phosphatase activity. The cached abstract foregrounds SCP1 but does not exclude experiments on CTDSP2; retain the curated CTDSP2 annotation without asserting that the abstract independently resolves every paralog assay.
