Phosphatase-1 Recombinant Protein | PPP1R14A recombinant protein
Recombinant Human Protein Phosphatase-1, Regulatory Subunit-14A
Sterile filtered colorless solution.
Introduction: PPP1R14A is a phosphorylation-dependent inhibitor of smooth muscle myosin phosphatase. Inhibition of PPP1R14A results to increased myosin phosphorylation and enhances smooth muscle contraction in the absence of increased intracellular Ca(2+) concentration. Myosin phosphatase can reverse MYL (myosin light chain) phosphorylation to induce a state of relaxation. However, during agonist-induced contraction at constant Ca2+ concurrent inhibition of myosin phosphatase leads to increases in MYL phosphorylation and tension. These calcium-independent increases in myosin phosphorylation and tension are termed calcium sensitization.Human pregnancy is characterized by the increases of PKN1 expression and CPI-17 phosphorylation in the myometrium. PPP1R14A is mapped to chromosome 19q13.13-q13.2.PPP1R14A binds directly to protein kinase C and casein kinase I. PPP1R14A siRNA decreased the level of merlin phosphorylation and consequently Ras and ERK activity in human tumor cell lines. PKC/CPI-17 mediated pathway in histamine, triggeres cytoskeletal rearrangements causing lung microvascular barrier compromise.
NCBI and Uniprot Product Information
NCBI Description
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) inhibitor family. This protein is an inhibitor of smooth muscle myosin phosphatase, and has higher inhibitory activity when phosphorylated. Inhibition of myosin phosphatase leads to increased myosin phosphorylation and enhanced smooth muscle contraction. Alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been noted for this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2011]
Uniprot Description
PPP1R14A: a phosphorylation-dependent inhibitory subunit of protein phosphatase 1 (PP-1A). Phosphorylation by PKC regulates its binding to PP-1A. Acts co-operatively to inhibit myosin light chain phosphatase (MLCP) activity. Inhibition leads to increased myosin phosphorylation and enhances smooth muscle contraction in the absence of increased intracellular Ca(2 ) concentration. Involved in the regulation of cell morphology, re-organisation of microfilaments, and cell spreading. Also expressed in human platelets and in brain where it may play a role in cerebellar long-term synaptic depression. Phosphorylation by ILK or Rho kinase enhances its ability to inhibit PP-1A.
