Among the post-translational modifications, phosphorylation is a vital regulatory mechanism of key proteins involved in specific pathways. Reverse phosphorylation has become recognized as the key process of regulation of gene expression, cellular proliferation, differentiation in Eukaryotes. Protein phosphatases, like kinases, are a class of enzymes that regulate protein phosphorylation. The serine/threonine phosphatases have been classified into four groups which include PP1, PP2A, PP2B (also termed calcineurin) and PP2C on the basis of differences in their biochemical properties. Protein Phosphatase X/C (or PP4) is a member of PP2A subfamily and shares 65% structural idENTITY_TYPE_CODE with PP2A in humans. PPX/C is actively involved in regulation of growth and organization of microtubule at the centrososmes and centrosome maturation during cell division by mitosis and meiosis. PPX/C reportedly has a pro-apoptotic role in T lymphocytes. PPX/C takes part in important cellular processes through signaling pathways involving NF-κB and c-Jun N-terminal kinase Anti-Protein Phosphatase X/C Interior recognizes an internal sequence of protein phosphatase XCatalytic domain (34 kDa).

Nuclear factor kappaB (NF-kappaB) and the Rel family of proteins are pleiotropic transcription factors that play central roles in the immune and inflammatory responses, as well as apoptosis. Here, we identified a serine/threonine protein phosphatase X (PPX; also called protein

Protein phosphatase 4 (PP4; also named PPX or PPP4) is a PP2A-related protein serine/threonine phosphatase with important roles in a variety of cellular processes such as microtubule growth/organization, apoptosis, tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-alpha signaling, and activation of c-Jun N-terminal kinase

Functional expression cloning strategies are highly suitable for the analysis of the molecular control of apoptosis. This approach has two critical advantages. Firstly, it eliminates prior assumptions about the properties of the proteins involved, and, secondly, it selectively targets proteins
