Disease relevance of PPP2R1A

  • The PPP2R1A gene, encoding the alpha isoform of the heterotrimeric serine/threonine protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A), is located within the FWT2 candidate region and is altered in breast and lung carcinomas [1].
  • Here, we report the detection of mutations in breast, lung carcinomas and melanomas in the genes of both alpha (PPP2R1A) and beta isoforms [2].
