Soluble inorganic pyrophosphatase is a ubiquitous enzyme that plays an important role in energy metabolism [1]. Energy metabolism is made possible by soluble inorganic pyrophosphatases (PPases) by their hydrolyzing inorganic phosphates into two molecules of orthophosphate [2]. PPases may have had an important role in evolution by aiding in accurate DNA copying during chromosome duplication [1].
