One of four major classes of mammalian serine/threonine specific protein phosphatases. Protein phosphatase 2C is a monomeric enzyme about 42 kDa in size. It shows broad substrate specificity dependent on divalent cations (mainly manganese and magnesium). Three isozymes are known in mammals: PP2C -alpha, -beta and -gamma. In yeast, there are four PP2C homologues: phosphatase PTC1 that have weak tyrosine phosphatase activity, phosphatase PTC2, phosphatase PTC3, and PTC4. Isozymes of PP2C also occur in Arabidopsis thaliana where the kinase-associated protein phosphatase (KAPP) containing a C-terminal PP2C domain, dephosphorylates Ser/Thr receptor-like kinase RLK5.
Protein Phosphatase 2c has been studied across 13 research domains including 🧘 Stress & Anxiety, 🦴 Bone & Joint, 🔬 Oncology, 🫁 Liver & Detox, ⚡ Energy & Fatigue. The primary research focus is 🧘 Stress & Anxiety with 16% of studies addressing this area.
