General Information
The regulatory A subunit (PR65) is tightly associated with catalytic subunit (PP2Ac), forming a scaffold to which the appropriate B subunit can bind. Different B subunits interact via the same or overlapping sites within the A subunit of the core dimer, which explains why binding of the B subunits is mutually exclusive. Two distinct PR65 isoforms (α and β) which share 86% sequence identity are ubiquitiously expressed. Recent studies reported that the genes encoding both the α and β isoforms of PR65/A were altered at low frequency in a variety of primary human tumors, identifying these subunits as tumorsuppressors. Partial or total loss (by cleavage through caspase-3) of the PR65/A subunit resulted in an increase in PP2A activity towards specific pro-apoptotic substrates involved in the cellular apoptotic response.
