Protein phosphatase 5 (PP5) is a unique member of the PPP family of serine/threonine phosphatases based on the presence of tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) domains within its structure. Since its discovery, PP5 has been implicated in wide ranging cellular processes, including MAPK-mediated growth and differentiation, cell cycle arrest and DNA damage ...

Impact of PNKP mutations associated with microcephaly, seizures and developmental delay on enzyme activity and DNA strand break repair [PDF]
Microcephaly with early-onset, intractable seizures and developmental delay (MCSZ) is a hereditary disease caused by mutations in polynucleotide kinase/phosphatase (PNKP), a DNA strand break repair protein with DNA 5'-kinase and DNA 3'-phosphatase ...

A Sarcoplasmic Reticulum Localized Protein Phosphatase Regulates Phospholamban Phosphorylation and Promotes Ischemia Reperfusion Injury in the Heart. [PDF]
Phospholamban (PLN) is a key regulator of sarcolemma calcium uptake in cardiomyocyte, its inhibitory activity to SERCA is regulated by phosphorylation. PLN hypophosphorylation is a common molecular feature in failing heart.
