PP1 — Triticum turgidum subsp. durum

Summary

TRITD7BV1G009700, designated TtPP1, encodes a serine/threonine-protein phosphatase belonging to the PP1 catalytic subunit family, with protein serine/threonine phosphatase activity (EC 3.1.3.16) and metal binding. The product is localized to both the cytoplasm and nucleus. In durum wheat, TtPP1 is associated with auxin signaling, signal transduction, and the biological process GO:0016311 (dephosphorylation). Studies of related genes in other species link the family to diverse cellular processes, though these associations are not yet established for TtPP1 itself.
