Protein phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 14A also known as CPI-17 (C-kinase potentiated Protein phosphatase-1 Inhibitor Mr = 17 kDa) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the PPP1R14A gene.[4][5][6]

Function

CPI-17 is a

PAK
. Agonist stimulation of smooth muscle enhances CPI-17 phosphorylation mainly through PKC and ROCK. Myosin phosphatase inhibition increases myosin phosphorylation and smooth muscle contraction in the absence of increased intracellular Ca2+ concentration. This phenomenon is known as Ca2+ sensitization, which occurs in response to agonist stimulation of smooth muscle. In Purkinje neuron, CPI-17 is involved in long-term synaptic depression.

There are three homologues of CPI-17:

  • Phosphatase Holoenzyme Inhibitor (PHI: PPP1R14B),
  • Kinase Enhanced Phosphatase Inhibitor (KEPI: PPP1R14C), and
  • Gastric-Brain Phosphatase Inhibitor (GBPI: PPP1R14D).

Clinical significance

CPI-17 is up-regulated some cancer cells, and causes hyperphosphorylation of tumor suppressor merlin/NF2.[7][6] In prostate cancer, CPI-17 expressions are reported to be associated with GWAS risk SNP rs7247241 T allele and increase cell proliferation. [8]
