U-Blot® MYPT3 Polyclonal Antibody

Background：Myosin light chain kinase and phosphatase (MLCP) complexes control the phosphorylation states of regulatory myosin light chains, which is crucial for muscle and intracellular movement. MLCPs typically contain a catalytic protein phosphatase 1 (PP1c) subunit, a myosin phosphatase targeting (MYPT) subunit, and another smaller subunit. The protein encoded by this gene represents an MYPT subunit, which is responsible for directing PP1c to its intended targets. However, while other MYPTs result in PP1c activation after becoming phosphorylated, the encoded protein is phosphorylated by protein kinase A and then inhibits the catalytic activity of PP1c.
