    basic FUNCTION
  • putatively involved in signal transduction
  • protein tyrosine phospholase, dephosphorylating the lipid messenger phosphatidylinositol-3-phosphate
  • regulator of membrane traffic and in particular the movements of vesicles between endosomal compartments (Dowling 2009)
  • MTM1 roles in the structural organization of muscle fibers that are independent of its enzymatic activity
  • direct function of MTM1 enzymatic activity in SR remodeling and a key role for PIKFYVE in promoting sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) membrane curvature in skeletal muscle
  • enhances BIN1-mediated membrane tubulation, depending on binding and phosphoinositide phosphatase activity
    • CELLULAR PROCESS protein, post translation

  • MTM1 is a novel binding partner of BIN1, endogenously in skeletal muscle
  • SPEG was identified as an MTM1-interacting protein
