Carboxy-terminal domain, RNA polymerase II, polypeptide A phosphatase 1, also known as CTDSP1, is a class 2C phosphatase with activity dependent on the conserved DxD motif. CTDSP1 preferentially catalyzes the dephosphorylation of 'Ser-5' within the tandem 7 residues repeats in the C-terminal domain (CTD) of the largest RNA polymerase II subunit POLR2A.
