Abstract excerpt
Lipid phosphates serve as signaling molecules involved in diverse cellular processes such as cell proliferation, migration, angiogenesis, inflammation, immunity and cancer progression. Phospholipid phosphatases (PLPPs) modulate these signals by catalyzing the dephosphorylation of lipid phosphates. Here, we report the cryo-EM structure of PLPP3, revealing a tetrameric assembly. PLPP3 contains six transmembrane...
