Protein Serine/Threonine Phosphatase Gene - CISMeF
Protein Serine/Threonine Phosphatase GeneNCIt concept
Preferred Label : Protein Serine/Threonine Phosphatase Gene;
NCIt synonyms : Serine/Threonine-Specific Protein Phosphatase Gene; Protein Serine-Threonine Phosphatase Gene;
NCIt definition : Protein Serine/Threonine Phosphatase Genes encode Protein Serine/Threonine Phosphatases,
a group of enzymes that specifically dephosphorylate phosphoserine and phosphothreonine
residues in specific target proteins. Together with serine/threonine protein kinases,
these enzymes regulate serine and threonine phosphorylation and dephosphorylation
of target proteins in cellular signal transduction pathways typically involved in
cell growth control. (NCI);
