High impact information on Ppp1r14c

  • We identified the protein kinase C-enhanced protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) inhibitor KEPI based on its morphine-induced upregulation in striatum [1].
  • Kepi family members include Ppp1r14a (CPI-17), Ppp1r14b (PHI), ppp1r14c (KEPI), Ppp1r14d (GBPI) and AK016819 (testis enriched transcript)  [2]
  • Dense KEPI immunoreactivity in nucleus accumbens perikarya, combined with evidence for its regulation by opiates, supports possible roles for KEPI in molecular signal transduction pathways important for drug reward and addiction [3].
  • KEPI knockout mice show phenotype of attenuated morphine reward as assessed by conditioned place preference  [4]
