Disease mutations and phosphorylation alter the allosteric pathways involved in autoinhibition of protein phosphatase 2A.

Abstract excerpt

Mutations in protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) are connected to intellectual disability and cancer. It has been hypothesized that these mutations might disrupt the autoinhibition and phosphorylation-induced activation of PP2A. Since they are located far from both the active and substrate binding sites, it is unclear how they exert their effect. We performed allosteric pathway analysis based on molecular dynamics...
