Gene:
protein phosphatase 1, regulatory (inhibitor) subunit 1A
Gene ID:
190690
Symbol:
PPP1R1A
Species:
1000
Description:
Inhibitor of protein-phosphatase 1. This protein may be important in hormonal control of glycogen metabolism. Hormones that elevate intracellular cAMP increase I-1 activity in many tissues. I-1 activation may impose cAMP control over proteins that are not directly phosphorylated by PKA. Following a rise in intracellular calcium, I-1 is inactivated by calcineurin (or PP2B). Does not inhibit type-2 phosphatases.
