Abstract excerpt
Myotubularin-related 2 (MTMR2) is a 3-phosphoinositide lipid phosphatase with specificity towards the D-3 position of phosphoinositol 3-phosphate [PI(3)P] and phosphoinositol 3,5-bisphosphate lipids enriched on endosomal structures. Recently, we have shown that phosphorylation of MTMR2 on Ser58 is responsible for its cytoplasmic sequestration and that a phosphorylation-deficient variant (S58A) targets MTMR2 to...
