MpPP2A-A gene cloning and knockout mutant constructing in Marchantia polymorpha
Protein phosphatase 2A(PP2A), a serine/threonine phosphatases, participates in many biological processes such as plant growth and development by dephosphorylating its substrate proteins.

A Non-Radioactive Method for Measuring PP2A Activity in Plants
Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) is a group of important cellular regulators in eukaryotes that dephosphorylate more than 30% of cellular proteins whose activities are turned on or off by phosphorylation.

Activation of tumor suppressor protein PP2A inhibits KRAS-driven tumor growth [PDF]
Targeted cancer therapies, which act on specific cancer-associated molecular targets, are predominantly inhibitors of oncogenic kinases. While these drugs have achieved some clinical success, the inactivation of kinase signaling via stimulation of ...

ABSTRACT Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms (cyanoHABs) threaten human, animal, and ecosystem health and safety through production of toxic secondary metabolites. Microcystis, a cosmopolitan bloom‐forming cyanobacterial genus, is well‐known for producing hepatotoxic microcystins (MCs), but it can produce many other bioactive cyanopeptides, such as ...

Hypoxia-activated Smad3-specific Dephosphorylation by PP2A [PDF]
The transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) maintains epithelial homeostasis and suppresses early tumor formation, but paradoxically at later stages of tumor progression, TGF-beta promotes malignancy. TGF-beta activates phosphorylation of Smad2 and -3 effectors. Smad2 and -3 are known to have different functions, but differential regulation of their

Therapeutic reactivation of protein phosphatase 2A in acute myeloid leukemia
Protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) is a serine/threonine phosphatase that is required for normal cell growth and development. PP2A is a potent tumor suppressor, which is inactivated in cancer cells as a result of genetic deletions and mutations.

STRIPAK directs PP2A activity toward MAP4K4 to promote oncogenic transformation of human cells
Alterations involving serine-threonine phosphatase PP2A subunits occur in a range of human cancers, and partial loss of PP2A function contributes to cell transformation.

Defects of protein phosphatase 2A causes corticosteroid insensitivity in severe asthma. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Corticosteroid insensitivity is a major barrier of treatment for some chronic inflammatory diseases, such as severe asthma, but the molecular mechanism of the insensitivity has not been fully elucidated.

An ANGPTL4-ceramide-protein kinase Cζ axis mediates chronic glucocorticoid exposure-induced hepatic steatosis and hypertriglyceridemia in mice. [PDF]
Chronic or excess glucocorticoid exposure causes lipid disorders such as hypertriglyceridemia and hepatic steatosis. Angptl4 (angiopoietin-like 4), a primary target gene of the glucocorticoid receptor in hepatocytes and adipocytes, is required for ...
