Official Full Name: protein phosphatase, Mg2+/Mn2+ dependent 1B
Also known as: PP2CB; PP2CBETA; PP2C-beta; PPC2BETAX; PP2C-beta-X
The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the PP2C family of serine/threonine protein phosphatases. Members of the PP2C family are known to be negative regulators of cellular stress response pathways. This phosphatase has been shown to dephosphorylate cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs) and thus may be involved in cell cycle control. Overexpression of this phosphatase has been reported to lead to cell growth arrest or cell death. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants encoding different isoforms. Other transcript variants have been described but do not currently represent full-length sequences.
