    basic FUNCTION
  • calmodulin dependent serine/threonine phosphatase
  • regulating bone formation through an effect on osteoblast differentiation
  • regulatory subunit of calcineurin important for the phosphatase activity
  • acting as a calmodulin inhibitor
  • important role of PPP3R1 in cell neoplastic transformation
  • modulates cellular proteasome activity via a specific interaction with PSMA7
  • regulating positively ASK1 through direct dephosphorylation
  • novel function in cardiac stress response, suggesting a possible application of PP3R1 in coronary disease therapy
  • CELLULAR PROCESS
    PHYSIOLOGICAL PROCESS
    PATHWAY
    metabolism
    signaling signal transduction
    a component
  • regulatory subunit of calcineurin
  • heterodimer composed of a catalytic subunit (A) and a regulatory subunit (B)
  • Calcineurin is a heterodimer of a 58- to 64-kDa catalytic subunit, calcineurin A (PPP3CA), and a 19-kDa regulatory subunit, calcineurin B (PPP3R1)
  • INTERACTION
    DNA
    RNA
    small molecule metal binding,
  • Ca2+
  • protein
  • binds to proteasome subunit alpha type 7 (PSMA7) and inhibits the transactivation activity of HIF1A via the proteasome pathway
  • PPP3R1-induced TNFSF10 expression is mediated by NFKB
  • TRAF domain of TRAF3 interacted with PPP3R1 0)

    inhibition of Cnb1 in osteoblasts increases bone mass by directly increasing osteoblast differentiation and indirectly decreasing osteoclastogenesis
    Susceptibility to excessive left ventricular growth

    ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • calcineurin B mutant mice
  • mice deleting the CnB gene lose nearly all Cn activity and show poor tolerance to cardiac stress
