Ppm1a Gene Summary [Mouse]

Enables phosphoprotein phosphatase activity. Involved in N-terminal protein myristoylation. Acts upstream of or within several processes, including cellular response to transforming growth factor beta stimulus; negative regulation of BMP signaling pathway; and positive regulation of protein export from nucleus. Located in cytosol; membrane; and nucleus. Is expressed in several structures, including Peyer's patch; brain; ganglia; male reproductive gland or organ; and white fat. Orthologous to human PPM1A (protein phosphatase, Mg2+/Mn2+ dependent 1A). [provided by Alliance of Genome Resources, Jul 2025]

Protein Domains

A protein domain is a distinct structural or functional region within a protein that can evolve, function, and exist independently of the rest of the protein chain. These domains in mouse Ppm1a often fold into stable, three-dimensional structures and are associated with specific biological functions, such as binding to DNA, other proteins, or small molecules.
