Signal transduction via protein phosphorylation

Historically, the protein phosphatases were classified into two groups according to their substrate specificity tyrosine phosphatases and serine/threonine protein phosphatases. The latter are metalloenzymes we will refer to these as metallophospha-tases, a superfamily of enzymes that includes the serine/threonine protein phosphatases, purple acid phosphatases, and other enzymes capable of phosphoryl group transfer reactions such as bacteriophage A protein phosphatase [17, 18]. [Pg.276]

The eukaryotic serine/threonine protein phosphatases were originally classified as either type 1 or 2 serine/threonine protein phosphatases based on their biochemical properties (Table 17-1) [19-21]. Type 1 protein phosphatases selectively dephos- [Pg.276]

A metal-dependent form of PP2A has been reported [47]  [Pg.277]


Redox regulation of signal transduction via protein phosphorylation mechanisms by calcineurin, a threonine/serine phosphatase, is the theme explored by Rusnak and colleagues (Chapter 17). Detailed site-directed mutagenesis and spectroscopic studies reveal the importance of active site amino acid residues and redox state of... [Pg.390]
