Description

protein phosphatase 3, regulatory subunit B, alpha isoform (calcineurin B, type I)

Gene Summary

Enables phosphatase binding activity and phosphoprotein phosphatase activity. Involved in postsynaptic modulation of chemical synaptic transmission; regulation of postsynaptic neurotransmitter receptor internalization; and regulation of synaptic vesicle cycle. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including calcineurin-NFAT signaling cascade; circulatory system development; and myelination in peripheral nervous system. Located in sarcolemma. Part of calcineurin complex. Is active in several cellular components, including Schaffer collateral - CA1 synapse; hippocampal mossy fiber to CA3 synapse; and parallel fiber to Purkinje cell synapse. Is expressed in brain; heart; jaw skeleton; lung; and tooth. Used to study dilated cardiomyopathy and schizophrenia. Human ortholog(s) of this gene implicated in Alzheimer's disease and dilated cardiomyopathy. Orthologous to human PPP3R1 (protein phosphatase 3 regulatory subunit B, alpha).
