Gene: PPP1R3B

Alternate names for this Gene: GL|PPP1R4|PTG

Gene Summary: This gene encodes the catalytic subunit of the serine/theonine phosphatase, protein phosphatase-1. The encoded protein is expressed in liver and skeletal muscle tissue and may be involved in regulating glycogen synthesis in these tissues. This gene may be a involved in type 2 diabetes and maturity-onset diabetes of the young. Alternate splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same protein.

Gene is located in Chromosome: 8

Location in Chromosome : 8p23.1

Description of this Gene: protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 3B

Type of Gene: protein-coding
