In eukaryotes, the phosphorylation and dephosphorylation of proteins on serine and threonine residues is an essential means of regulating a broad range of cellular functions, including division, homeostasis and apoptosis. A group of proteins that are intimately involved in this process are the protein phosphatases. In general, the protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) holoenzyme is a trimeric complex composed of a regulatory subunit, a variable subunit, and a catalytic subunit. Sds22, also known as PPP1R7 (protein phosphatase 1, regulatory (inhibitor) subunit 7), is a 360 amino acid protein that localizes to the nucleus and contains ten LRR (leucine rich) repeats. Expressed in a variety of tissues, Sds22 functions as a regulatory subunit of the PP1 complex, suggesting a role in protein regulation throughout the cell. Multiple isoforms of Sds22 exist due to alternative splicing events.
