Majority of cancer tissues showed weak to moderate cytoplasmic and/or nuclear positivity. Lymphomas, carcinoids, lung, prostate, ovarian, renal and stomach cancers were negative.
Lymphomas and gastric cancer showed moderate cytoplasmic positivity. Remaining cancer tissues were weakly stained or negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name

Description
Protein phosphatase 1, catalytic subunit, alpha isozyme (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The protein encoded by this gene is one of the three catalytic subunits of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1). PP1 is a serine/threonine specific protein phosphatase known to be involved in the regulation of a variety of cellular processes, such as cell division, glycogen metabolism, muscle contractility, protein synthesis, and HIV-1 viral transcription. Increased PP1 activity has been observed in the end stage of heart failure. Studies in both human and mice suggest that PP1 is an important regulator of cardiac function. Mouse studies also suggest that PP1 functions as a suppressor of learning and memory. Three alternatively spliced transcript variants encoding different isoforms have been found for this gene.
