Enhanced insulin sensitivity associated with provision of mono and polyunsaturated fatty acids in skeletal muscle cells involves counter modulation of PP2A [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Aims/HypothesisReduced skeletal muscle insulin sensitivity is a feature associated with sustained exposure to excess saturated fatty acids (SFA), whereas mono and polyunsaturated fatty acids (MUFA and PUFA) not only improve insulin sensitivity but blunt ...

Inhibitor-1 and -2 of PP2A have preference between PP2A complexes [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2015
Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) forms tens of kinds of complexes with different substrate specificity and functions by using various regulatory B subunits. But how these complexes' activities are regulated separately is not well understood. Here we showed unequal enzyme inhibition of each form by two proteinous PP2A inhibitors, I1(PP2A) and I2(PP2A ...

Protein phosphatase 2A mediates dormancy of glioblastoma multiforme-derived tumor stem-like cells during hypoxia. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The hypoxic microenvironment of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is thought to increase resistance to cancer therapies. Recent evidence suggests that hypoxia induces protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), a regulator of cell cycle and cell death.

An axonemal PP2A B‐subunit is required for PP2A localization and flagellar motility [PDF]

open access: yesCytoskeleton, 2011
AbstractAnalysis of Chlamydomonas axonemes revealed that the protein phosphatase, PP2A, is localized to the outer doublet microtubules and is implicated in regulation of dynein‐driven motility. We tested the hypothesis that PP2A is localized to the axoneme by a specialized, highly conserved 55‐kDa B‐type subunit identified in the Chlamydomonas ...

Analysis of the structure and function of protein phosphatase 2A [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
One of the hallmarks of a living organism is the ability to respond to intra- or extracellular changes. These responses involve panoply of enzymes mediating signals through the cell and regulating distinct cellular functions.

PP2A inactivation by ROS accumulation [PDF]

open access: yesBlood, 2014
In this issue of Blood, Low and colleagues show that reactive oxygen species (ROS)–mediated phosphorylation of Bcl-2 overcomes chemoresistance in hematopoietic malignancies and other cancers and that this function is mediated by selective nitration of Y289 on the Bcl-2–bound B56δ subunit of protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), which interferes with the ...

Identification of Novel Adenylyl Cyclase 5 (AC5) Signaling Networks in D1 and D2 Medium Spiny Neurons using Bimolecular Fluorescence Complementation Screening

open access: yesCells, 2019
Adenylyl cyclase type 5 (AC5), as the principal isoform expressed in striatal medium spiny neurons (MSNs), is essential for the integration of both stimulatory and inhibitory midbrain signals that initiate from dopaminergic G protein-coupled receptor ...

Protein Phosphatase 2A Deficiency in Macrophages Increases Foam Cell Formation and Accelerates Atherosclerotic Lesion Development

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2022
Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), a crucial serine/threonine phosphatase, has recently been reported to play an important role in cardiovascular disease.

Structural basis for PP2A-mediated regulation of accurate chromosome segregation

open access: yes, 2023
The dynamic crosstalk between kinases and phosphatases is essential to ensure faithful mitosis. Protein phosphatases PP2A(B55) and PP2A(B56), and the Chromosomal Passenger Complex -CPC, containing Aurora B kinase-, establish a signalling network that ...

Protein Phosphatase 2A: Role in T Cells and Diseases

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, 2023
Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) is a serine–threonine phosphatase that plays an important role in the regulation of cell proliferation and signal transduction.
