PPP2R5D (protein phosphatase 2 regulatory subunit B' d) is a member of the largest PP2A B' (Protein phosphatase 2A) (B56) subunit family. It codes for B56d, a 602 amino acid protein, that is a regulatory subunit B of PP2A. In human and mouse, it is more expressed in the progressing brain and less in heart and skeletal muscles.
Synonyms: Anti-B56D; Anti-protein phosphatase 2, regulatory subunit B', delta isoform
Storage: -20C
Application: All Prestige Antibodies Powered by Atlas Antibodies are developed and validated by the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) project (www.proteinatlas.org)and as a result, are supported by the most extensive characterization in the industry. The Human Protein Atlas project can be subdivided into three efforts: Human Tissue Atlas, Cancer Atlas, and Human Cell Atlas. The antibodies that have been generated in support of the Tissue and Cancer Atlas projects have been tested by immunohistochemistry against hundreds of normal and disease tissues and through the recent efforts of the Human Cell Atlas project, many have been characterized by immunofluorescence to map the human proteome not only at the tissue level but now at the subcellular level. These images and the collection of this vast data set can be viewed on the Human Protein Atlas (HPA) site by clicking on the Image Gallery link.

Biochem Physiol Actions: PPP2R5D (protein phosphatase 2 regulatory subunit B' d) plays a major role in modulating neuronal and developmental regulation processes such as PI3K (phosphoinositide 3-kinase) /AKT (AKT serine/threonine kinase) and GSK3ß (glycogen synthase kinase 3 ß) mediated cell growth, chromatin remodeling and gene transcriptional regulation. It also play a vital role in the modulation of Cdc25C (cell division cycle 25C) and Cdk1 (cyclin dependent kinase 1), controlling exit from mitosis. It even controls the dephosphorylation of DARPP-32 (dopamine- and cAMP-regulated phosphoprotein, 32kd; PPP1R1B), thereby modulating the dopaminergic neurotransmission in neurons. Mutations in the PP2A regulatory subunit can cause human overgrowth.
