Abstract excerpt
Protein serine/threonine phosphatase type 1 (PP1) has been found in all eukaryotes examined to date and is involved in the regulation of many cellular functions, including glycogen metabolism, muscle contraction, and mitosis. In Drosophila, four genes code for the catalytic subunit of PP1 (PP1c), three of which belong to the PP1 alpha subtype. PP1 beta 9C (flapwing) encodes the fourth PP1c gene and has a specific...
