Determinants of site-specific dephosphorylation by PP2A-B56
Ontology highlight
ABSTRACT: The tumor suppressor PP2A is a major cellular protein phosphatase that regulates numerous cellular processes through the formation of holoenzymes containing distinct regulatory B-subunits. However, the determinants of differential substrate dephosphorylation by PP2A are poorly understood. Here, we develop a specific genetically encoded inhibitor of PP2A-B56 and perform global phosphoproteomic studies to identify hundreds of regulated phosphorylation sites. We show that PP2A-B56 substrate specificity is controlled by affinity and position of B56 binding motifs and that PP2A active site preference is determined by the B-subunit. These insights uncover PP2A-B56 as a novel negative regulator of ADAM17 mediated growth factor signalling and tumor development. Collectively our work identifies basic principles of PP2A-B56 specificity with broad implications for understanding signalling in eukaryotes.
