A major mechanism by which cells regulate protein function is to
place phosphate groups on serine and threonine residues. Though the
steady-state level of protein phosphorylation depends on the
relative activities of both kinases and phosphatases, a much
greater effort has previously gone into the study of the former
that the latter . Today, however, there is an increasing
appreciation for the role that protein phosphatases play in the
dynamic p- cess of protein phosphorylation . To date, there are
four major types of protein serine/threonine phosphatase catalytic
subunits, designated protein phosphatase type 1, 2A, 2B, and 2C .
Each has been identified by the techniques of protein chemistry and
enzymology and can be distinguished from one another by their
preference for specific substrates as well as their sensitivity to
certain acti- tors and inhibitors . Protein Phosphatase Protocols
has been assembled in response to the growing interest these
enzymes are receiving . The goal of this compilation is to provide
a "how-to" experimental guide to aid newcomers as well as s- soned
veterans in their research endeavors, thus further contributing
towards our ever increasing knowledge of serine/threonine
phosphatases . What you have before you contains contributions by
many of the current and emerging leaders in the field . To
highlight just a few, these chapters c- tain step-by-step
information on how to isolate novel phosphatases and re- latory
subunits, assay for activity, and generate immunological reagents
for both biochemical and biological characterization of these
enzymes .
