K38A | mutation does not abolish nuclear localization of enzyme | Homo sapiens |
additional information | construction of deletion mutants and expression in HeLa cells. Domain 1 of the enzyme extends from amino acids 1 to 233, domain 2 from amino acids 234 to 284 and domain 3 includes amino acids 285 to 378. Domain 1 of PME-1 does not migrate into the nucleus and domain 3 shows a speckled cytoplasmic distribution, whereas domain 2 is targeted to the nucleus | Homo sapiens |
R271A | mutation abolishes nuclear localization of enzyme | Homo sapiens |
R37A | mutation does not abolish nuclear localization of enzyme | Homo sapiens |
R39A | mutation does not abolish nuclear localization of enzyme | Homo sapiens |
S156A | mutation abolishes the methylesterase activity, residue S156 is a functional active site serine | Homo sapiens |
Localization | Comment | Organism | GeneOntology No. | Textmining |

nucleus | enzyme is predominantly localized in the nucleus and harbors a functional nuclear localization signal. This is in good correlation with the methylation status of its substrate protein phosphates PP2AC, demethylated PP2AC being substantially nuclear | Homo sapiens | 5634 | - |

General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
physiological function | overexpression of enzyme PME-1, but not of an inactive mutant, results in increased demethylation of substrate protein phosphatase PP2AC in the nucleus, whereas overexpression of a cytoplasmic PME-1 mutant lacking the nuclear localization signal results in increased demethylation in the cytoplasm, albeit without any obvious functional consequences. PME-1 associates with an inactive PP2A population, regardless of its esterase activity or localization. RNAi-mediated knock-down of PME-1 in HeLa cellsdoes not result in changes in substrate PP2AC methylation levels | Homo sapiens |
