The Role of Myotubularin-Related Lipid Phosphatases in Cancer Pathogenesis
Myotubularin-related proteins (MTMRs) comprise a family of lipid phosphatases using phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate and phosphatidylinositol 3,5-bisphosphate as their substrate.

Clinical Characteristics and Neurologic Outcomes of X-Linked Myotubular Myopathy [PDF]
Purpose X-linked myotubular myopathy (XLMTM) is a rare condition of centronuclear myopathy caused by myotubularin 1 (MTM1) mutations. Patients with XLMTM show different neurodevelopmental outcomes after the neonatal period depending on age and acquired ...

Loss of catalytically inactive lipid phosphatase myotubularin-related protein 12 impairs myotubularin stability and promotes centronuclear myopathy in zebrafish. [PDF]
X-linked myotubular myopathy (XLMTM) is a congenital disorder caused by mutations of the myotubularin gene, MTM1. Myotubularin belongs to a large family of conserved lipid phosphatases that include both catalytically active and inactive myotubularin ...

Natural history of a mouse model of X-linked myotubular myopathy
X-linked myotubular myopathy (XLMTM) is a severe monogenetic disorder of the skeletal muscle. It is caused by loss-of-expression/function mutations in the myotubularin (MTM1) gene.

Summary: Symbiotic nitrogen fixation is a complex process in which legumes interact with rhizobia under nitrogen starvation. In this study, we found that myotubularin phosphatase (MtMP) is mainly expressed in roots and nodules in Medicago truncatula ...

Structural rationale to understand the effect of disease-associated mutations on Myotubularin
Myotubularin or MTM1 is a lipid phosphatase that regulates vesicular trafficking in the cell. The MTM1 gene is mutated in a severe form of muscular disease, X-linked myotubular myopathy or XLMTM, affecting 1 in 50,000 newborn males worldwide.

Respiratory care in myotubular myopathy
X-linked myotubular myopathy is a neuromuscular condition caused by pathogenic variants in the MTM1 gene, which encodes for myotubularin, a phosphatidylinositol 3-phosphate phosphatase.

Phosphatase-dead myotubularin ameliorates X-linked centronuclear myopathy phenotypes in mice. [PDF]
Myotubularin MTM1 is a phosphoinositide (PPIn) 3-phosphatase mutated in X-linked centronuclear myopathy (XLCNM; myotubular myopathy). We investigated the involvement of MTM1 enzymatic activity on XLCNM phenotypes.
