Novel protein serine/threonine phosphatases: variety is the spice of life

Trends Biochem Sci. 1997 Jul;22(7):245-51. doi: 10.1016/s0968-0004(97)01060-8.

Abstract

The dephosphorylation of proteins on serine and threonine residues is a major mechanism of cellular regulation. Many novel protein serine/threonine phosphatases in the PPP family have recently been discovered and the insights that have been gained into their different functions are summarised in this review.
