PPP3R2 (Calcineurin Subunit B Type 2, Calcineurin B-like Protein, CBLP, Calcineurin BII, CNBII, PPP3R1-like, Protein Phosphatase 2B Regulatory Subunit 2, Protein Phosphatase 3 Regulatory Subunit B beta isoform, CBLP)

In eukaryotes, the phosphorylation and dephospho rylation of proteins on serine and threonine residues is an essential means of regulating a broad range of cellular functions including division, homeostasis and apoptosis. A group of proteins that are intimately involved in this process are the protein phosphatases. In general, the protein phosphatase (PP) holoenzyme is a trimeric complex composed of a regulatory subunit, a variable subunit and a catalytic subunit. Four major families of protein phosphatase catalytic subunits have been identified, designated PP1, PP2A, PP2B and PP2C. An additional...
