Abstract excerpt
Myotubularin and myotubularin-related proteins are dual-specificity phosphatases. Several myotubularin-related proteins have been identified in humans and mice. The members of the myotubularin protein family are highly conserved, from humans to yeast. Mutations in the human myotubularin gene (MTM1) lead to X-linked myotubular myopathy. Here we isolate and localize a novel putative myotubularin-related protein...
