Abstract

This group represents eukaryotic protein phosphatase methylesterase 1. It demethylates proteins that have been reversibly carboxymethylated [ 1 ]. Carboxymethylation is a highly conserved means of regulation in eukaryotic cells.


1. A protein phosphatase methylesterase (PME-1) is one of several novel proteins stably associating with two inactive mutants of protein phosphatase 2A. J. Biol. Chem. 274, 14382-91
