Purification and Characterization of an Extracellular Phosphatase Enzyme From Bacillus spp. [PDF]
Phosphorus is one of the most important nutrients for plant growth and development. Chemical Pi fertilizer is used to provide the phosphorus for the plants, but it is mostly fixed in the soil into insoluble form and become unavailable to the plants ...

Global analysis of serine/threonine and tyrosine protein phosphatase catalytic subunit genes in Neurospora crassa reveals interplay between phosphatases and the p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase. [PDF]
Protein phosphatases are integral components of the cellular signaling machinery in eukaryotes, regulating diverse aspects of growth and development. The genome of the filamentous fungus and model organism Neurospora crassa encodes catalytic subunits for

The Study of Serum Prostate Specific Antigen and Phosphatase Isoenzymes Activity as Diagnostic Parameters in Patients with Prostate Cancer in Nigeria [PDF]
Serum activities of Acid Phosphatase (ACP) and Prostatic Acid Phosphatase (PAP) are still employed in most hospitals in Nigeria for the diagnosis of prostate cancer, because of lack of resources for prostate specific antigen (PSA) assay.

Exploring lipid diversity and minimalism to define membrane requirements for synthetic cells
Designing the lipid membrane of synthetic cells is a complex task, in which its various roles (among them solute transport, membrane protein support, and self‐replication) should all be integrated. In this review, we report the latest top‐down and bottom‐up advances and discuss compatibility and complexity issues of current engineering approaches ...

Epileptic encephalopathy caused by biallelic mutation in PPM1D: a case report
Background: PPM1D gene encodes for metal-dependent protein phosphatase. Its function includes the inhibition of some tumor suppressor genes, DNA damage response, and cell cycle control.

PPM1D phosphatase, a target of p53 and RBM38 RNA-binding protein, inhibits p53 mRNA translation via dephosphorylation of RBM38. [PDF]
PPM1D phosphatase, also called wild-type p53-induced phosphatase 1, promotes tumor development by inactivating the p53 tumor suppressor pathway.

Acid phosphatases (APs) are a family of enzymes that are widespread in nature, and can be found in many animal and plant species. Mystery surrounds the precise functional role of these molecular facilitators, despite much research. Yet, paradoxically, human APs have had considerable impact as tools of clinical investigation and intervention.

Phosphatase, pseudo-phosphatase, or both? Understanding PRL oncogenicity [PDF]
Phosphatases of regenerating liver (PRL1-3) are among the most oncogenic protein phosphatases but their mechanism of action is poorly understood. Multiple substrates have been proposed as well as a non-catalytic function regulating magnesium transport. Our recent identification of a catalytically inactive PRL mutant that retains oncogenicity in a mouse

The retinoblastoma protein associates with the protein phosphatase type 1 catalytic subunit.
The retinoblastoma protein (p110RB) interacts with many cellular proteins in complexes potentially important for its growth-suppressing function. We have developed and used an improved version of the yeast two-hybrid system to isolate human cDNAs ...
