Serine/threonine-protein phosphatase 2A catalytic subunit beta isoform (PPP2CB)

The protein contains 309 amino acids for an estimated molecular weight of 35575 Da.

 

PP2A can modulate the activity of phosphorylase B kinase casein kinase 2, mitogen-stimulated S6 kinase, and MAP-2 kinase. (updated: Oct. 10, 2018)

CLONING

Hemmings et al. (1988) isolated the human cDNA for the beta-isoform of the catalytic subunit of protein phosphatase 2A (PPP2CB) from lung and lung fibroblast libraries. The cDNA encodes a 309-amino acid polypeptide.

GENE FUNCTION

Using affinity chromatography and mass spectrometric analysis, Hoffmeister et al. (2014) found that mouse Nosip (616759) interacted with a PP2A complex containing the catalytic subunits Pp2aca (PPP2CA; 176915) and Pp2acb, the scaffolding subunit Pr65-alpha (PPP2R1A; 605983), and the regulatory subunit Pr55-alpha (PPP2R2B; 604325). Protein pull-down experiments confirmed that Nosip precipitated the PP2A holoenzyme. An in vitro ubiquitination assay showed that Nosip functioned as an E3 ubiquitin ligase in monoubiquitination of the catalytic PP2A subunit. Monoubiquitination did not cause proteasomal degradation of PP2A, but it appeared to downregulate PP2A activity via a nondegradative mechanism. Loss of Nosip in mice resulted in increased PP2A activity in craniofacial tissue during development, resulting in holoprosencephaly and facial anomalies. Hoffmeister et al. (2014) concluded that NOSIP modulates PP2A activity in craniofacial development.

MAPPING

Jones et al. (1993) mapped the PPP2CB gene to chromosome 8 by use of the polymerase chain reaction in the study of somatic cell hybrids. By fluorescence in situ hybridization, they further localized the PPP2CB gene to 8p12-p11.2. Southern blot analysis of somatic cell hybrid DNA suggested that a pseudogene of the PPP2CB catalytic subunit is on chromosome 16. Imbert et al. (1996) constructed a YAC contig map of the 8p21-p12 chromosomal region and precisely mapped the PPP2CB within the YAC contigs.

NOMENCLATURE

The symbol PP2CB was used at one time for the gene now symbolized PPM1B (603770), which is located on 2p21. ... More on the omim web site
