{"symbol":"PPP1CB","synonyms":["PP-1B","HEL-S-80P","PP1BETA","PPP1CD","PP1B","NSLH2"],"name":"protein phosphatase 1, catalytic subunit, beta isozyme","description":"The protein encoded by this gene is one of the three catalytic subunits of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1). PP1 is a serine/threonine specific protein phosphatase known to be involved in the regulation of a variety of cellular processes, such as cell division, glycogen metabolism, muscle contractility, protein synthesis, and HIV-1 viral transcription. Mouse studies suggest that PP1 functions as a suppressor of learning and memory. Two alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been observed.
