Summaries
Gene Snapshot
Protein phosphatase 1α at 96A (Pp1α-96A) encodes a phosphatase involved in the regulation of Hedgehog and Wnt signaling pathways. [Date last reviewed: 2019-09-12]
Gene Group (FlyBase)
PPP FAMILY PROTEIN SERINE/THREONINE PHOSPHATASES -
The Phosphoprotein Phosphatase (PPP) family members are serine/threonine phosphatases. They often function in association with regulatory subunits. (Adapted from PMID:11230548 and PMID:19879837).
PTW-PP1 COMPLEX PP1ALPHA-96A VARIANT -
A nuclear protein serine/threonine phosphatase complex that regulates gene expression. The core of the complex is formed by a protein phosphatase 1 catalytic subunit and the scaffolding/nuclear-targeting subunit PNUTS. (Adapted from FBrf0262508 and PMID:20516061.)
Pathway (FlyBase)
POSITIVE REGULATORS OF WNT-TCF SIGNALING PATHWAY -
Positive regulators of Wnt-TCF (canonical Wnt) signaling up-regulate the pathway, resulting in the enhancement of transcriptional regulation mediated by β-catenin (arm).
NEGATIVE REGULATORS OF HEDGEHOG SIGNALING PATHWAY -
Negative regulators of hedgehog signaling down-regulate the pathway, resulting in the repression of transcription of hh-responsive genes.
NEGATIVE REGULATORS OF BMP SIGNALING PATHWAY -
Negative regulators of Bone Morphogenetic Protein (BMP) signaling down-regulate the pathway, ultimately resulting in the decreased nuclear activity of the Mad/Med transcription factor complex.
Phenotypic Description (Red Book; Lindsley and Zimm 1992)
Pp1: Protein phosphatase 1
Encodes a protein phosphatase 1 catalytic subunit that shows a high degree of similarity to rabbit protein phosphatase 1α in its enzymatic and physiochemical characteristics and has a predicted protein sequence that is 92% identical to that of rabbit PP-1α.

Model Confidence:
  • Very high (pLDDT > 90)
  • Confident (90 > pLDDT > 70)
  • Low (70 > pLDDT > 50)
  • Very low (pLDDT < 50)

AlphaFold produces a per-residue confidence score (pLDDT) between 0 and 100. Some regions with low pLDDT may be unstructured in isolation.
