Protein phosphatases, from molecules to networks.
The third EMBO-sponsored 'Europhosphatases' meeting brought together 180 participants with a wide range of backgrounds and research interests to discuss the current status of research on phosphatases. It became clear at this meeting that the field is very active, and just as diverse as its members. This report highlights some of the transformative research presented at the meeting.
متن کاملVoltage sensitive phosphatases: emerging kinship to protein tyrosine phosphatases from structure-function research
The transmembrane protein Ci-VSP from the ascidian Ciona intestinalis was described as first member of a fascinating family of enzymes, the voltage sensitive phosphatases (VSPs). Ci-VSP and its voltage-activated homologs from other species are stimulated by positive membrane potentials and dephosphorylate the head groups of negatively charged phosphoinositide phosphates (PIPs). In doing so, VSP...
متن کاملFrom Form to Function: Signaling by Protein Tyrosine Phosphatases
modulate signal transduction events that converge on Tyrosine phosphorylation, controlled by thecoordinated common downstream targets. These observations supactions of protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) and port a critical role for RPTPs in regulating the adhesive kinases (PTKs), is a critical control mechanism for nuevents that control axonal pathfinding. Tyrosine phosmerous physiological pr...
متن کاملProtein Phosphatases Targeted Library
Preamble Phosphatases constitute a wide class of enzymes which remove a phosphate group from the target substrate by hydrolysing phosphoric acid monoesters into a phosphate ion and a molecule with a free hydroxyl group. This action is directly opposite to that of phosphorylases and kinases. While kinases phosphorylate cellular substrates by using energetic molecules like ATP, phosphatases, in t...
متن کاملMetaplastic protein phosphatases.
Activity-dependent synaptic plasticity is widely considered to be one of the cellular mechanisms that underlie learning and memory. Long-term potentiation (LTP) is the most intensely studied form of synaptic plasticity, in part because it can be induced at glutamatergic synapses in the mammalian brain, including the hippocampus, a structure known for its involvement in memory function. LTP can ...
