Biotransformation Is an Effective Mechanism for Modulating the Biological Toxicity of Nodularin (NODR) [PDF]
The biotransformation of nodularin (NOD) is one of the critical strategies for regulating their biological toxicity. To investigate the effects and mechanisms of the biotransformation pathway, this study synthesized six biotransformation products of ...

ASPPs multimerize protein phosphatase 1. [PDF]
Protein Phosphatase 1 (PP1) activity is thought to be spatiotemporally defined by hundreds of different regulatory subunits, but their mechanisms of action are largely unknown.

Structural and Functional Analysis of the GADD34:PP1 eIF2α Phosphatase
The attenuation of protein synthesis via the phosphorylation of eIF2α is a major stress response of all eukaryotic cells. The growth-arrest- and DNA-damage-induced transcript 34 (GADD34) bound to the serine/threonine protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) is the ...

The SDS22:PP1:I3 complex: SDS22 binding to PP1 loosens the active site metal to prime metal exchange
SDS22 and Inhibitor-3 (I3) are two ancient regulators of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) that regulate multiple essential biological processes. Both SDS22 and I3 form stable dimeric complexes with PP1; however, and atypically for PP1 regulators, they also form a triple complex, where both proteins bind to PP1 simultaneously (SPI complex).

Xenopus Cdc7 executes its essential function early in S phase and is counteracted by checkpoint-regulated protein phosphatase 1 [PDF]
The initiation of DNA replication requires two protein kinases: cyclin-dependent kinase (Cdk) and Cdc7. Although S phase Cdk activity has been intensively studied, relatively little is known about how Cdc7 regulates progression through S phase.

Small molecules targeted to a non-catalytic "RVxF" binding site of protein phosphatase-1 inhibit HIV-1. [PDF]
HIV-1 Tat protein recruits host cell factors including CDK9/cyclin T1 to HIV-1 TAR RNA and thereby induces HIV-1 transcription. An interaction with host Ser/Thr protein phosphatase-1 (PP1) is critical for this function of Tat. PP1 binds to a Tat sequence,

PP1:Tautomycetin Complex Reveals a Path toward the Development of PP1-Specific Inhibitors [PDF]
Selective inhibitors for each serine/threonine phosphatase (PPP) are essential to investigate the biological actions of PPPs and to guide drug development. Biologically diverse organisms (e.g., cyanobacteria, dinoflagellates, beetles) produce structurally distinct toxins that are catalytic inhibitors of PPPs.

Molecular basis for substrate specificity of the Phactr1/PP1 phosphatase holoenzyme
PPP-family phosphatases such as PP1 have little intrinsic specificity. Cofactors can target PP1 to substrates or subcellular locations, but it remains unclear how they might confer sequence-specificity on PP1.

Protein phosphatase-1 inhibitor-2 promotes PP1γ positive regulation of synaptic transmission
Inhibitor-2 (I-2) is a prototypic inhibitor of protein phosphatase-1 (PP1), a major serine-threonine phosphatase that regulates synaptic plasticity and learning and memory.

Mitotic ER exit site dynamics: insights into blockade of secretion from the ER during mitosis
How ER exit sites disassemble during mitosis is not well understood. Transport ANd Golgi Organization 1 (TANGO1, also known as MIA3), a cargo receptor originally identified for collagens, acts as a hub for ER exit site disassembly under the control of ...
